By Amrith Ramkumar 

Here are some of the companies with shares expected to trade actively in Monday's session:

Chevron: Weekend attacks in Saudi Arabia disrupted oil facilities in the world's largest crude exporter, potentially boosting oil prices and shares of energy producers.

Apple Inc.: Walt Disney CEO Robert Iger resigned from the tech giant's board of directors last week, per a regulatory filing.

JPMorgan Chase & Co.: The bank has risen in eight consecutive sessions, the longest such stretch since February 2014, boosted by a rebound in Treasury yields. Higher rates support lending profitability.

Caterpillar Inc.: The maker of heavy machinery rallied 9% last week for its largest weekly gain since last November.

Freeport-McMoRan Inc.: The copper miner rebounded 14% last week with prices of the industrial metal climbing to their highest level since late July on hopes for an improved economic outlook.

Walgreens Boots Alliance Inc.: Shares of the drugstore chain rallied 6.5% last week, their best week since July 2015.
