With US shares set for a further rally on Tuesday according to futures, several stocks are in play in pre-market deals, including retailer Home Depot Inc (NYSE:HD).

Before the bell, the group reported its highest quarterly revenue in history at US$28.11bn versus an estimate of US$27.84bn.

Same-store sales sailed past Wall Street expectations, while net income for the second quarter grew to US$2.7bn, or US$2.25 per share, compared to US$2.4bn, or US$1.97 a share, a year ago. Homew Deppt shares shed 2.65% on the day.

Elsewhere, Coach Inc (NYSE:COH), the handbag and accessories maker, shed almost 8% in pre-market trade to US$44.07 and later shed over 15% as revenue for the latest quarter was below forecasts.
