LONDON (CNNMoney)

Here are the four things you need to know before the opening bell rings in New York:

1. Oil prices keep sliding: U.S. crude futures are down another 3% this morning, trading at roughly $44.50 per barrel. Oil prices fell by more than 5% on Monday.

The price of crude has more than halved over the past few months, piling pressure on the oil industry and many producer nations.

2. Stocks seem stuck: U.S. stock futures are little changed, although there's a slight positive bias in the markets.

Over the previous trading session, the Dow Jones industrial average lost 97 points, while the S&P 500 fell 0.8% and the Nasdaq slid 0.8%.

European markets are edging lower in early trading, though the moves are modest. Asian markets ended with mixed results.

3. Welcome news from China: New data from China shows the country's exports rose by 9.9% in December, compared to the previous year. That's better than economists were expecting.

The Shanghai Composite edged up 0.2%, after falling sharply for three consecutive sessions.

4. Earnings: Shares in Alcoa (AA) are expected to jump at the open after the aluminum producer's quarterly results beat expectations.
