-More U.S. retailers will report quarterly results. On deck: Coldwater Creek Inc. and Guess? Inc., both Wednesday; J. Crew Group Inc. on Thursday; and upscale jeweler Tiffany & Co. on Friday.

Also, Barnes & Noble Inc. is expected to report a big fiscal first-quarter loss Tuesday as the bookstore chain struggles with a changing marketplace for books and other media.

-Economists expect the U.S. second-quarter gross domestic product figure to be
revised down to 1.4% growth from 2.4% when the report is issued next Friday.

-And figures are due on July existing-home sales, which likely declined 4.3% from June, and new home sales, which are expected to rise 2.4%. The reports are due Tuesday and Wednesday, respectively. As for other economic data, the government will detail July orders for durable goods–those expected to last more than three years–on Tuesday.
