NEW YORK (Reuters) - U.S. stock index futures dipped late on Sunday ahead of a week when more than 140 S&P 500 companies, including Apple Inc (NASDAQ: AAPL), will report earnings.

At 9:07 p.m., S&P 500 e-minis were down 0.18 percent, Dow Jones e-minis <1YMc1> were off 0.14 percent and Nasdaq e-minis were down 0.33 percent.

Disappointing quarterly earnings from tech firms Facebook Inc (NASDAQ: FB), Intel Corp (NASDAQ: INTC) and Twitter Inc (NYSE: TWTR) last week hit the three major U.S. indexes, but the S&P 500 <.SPX> and the Dow Jones <.DJI> ended firmer for the week.
