UAW strike, Nike and Costco earnings, FOX Business’ Republican debate top week ahead

The UAW strike against Detroit's Big Three continues, plus earnings from Nike, Costco, CarMax and Carnival Corp. are on tap. And FOX Business Network hosts the Republican debate.

Investors are gearing up for a busy week with the United Auto Workers (UAW) strike against Detroit's Big Three ongoing and a host of earnings, as well as FOX Business' Republican presidential primary dentate. 

Stocks fell Friday with all three of the U.S. benchmark averages sliding for the week. 

The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite paced the declines falling over 3%.

Home retail, home sales 

Costco will report earnings Tuesday after the close of trading. Along with financials, the warehouse retailer will give fresh insight on inflation, especially with food.
