US DATA PREVIEW
US DATA PREVIEW: Short week with the extended Easter holiday weekend, slow start
with Thursday seeing the largest data drop on a shortened session ahead Friday's
close.
- Multiple Fed speakers ahead the start of the media blackout Saturday include
Chicago Fed President Evans and Boston Fed President Rosengren on Monday, Dallas
Fed President Kaplan Tuesday, St Louis Fed President Bullard, Philly Fed
President Harker and NY Fed Sn VP Logan on Wednesday.
- On tap for Monday: April Empire Manufacturing Index; February net TICS flows;
U.S. Treasury auctions are limited to 13- and 26W bills.
- Barclays economists expect the Empire Mfg index to climb to "6.0 from 3.7
previously. If our forecast proves true, then the index would have averaged 5.5
points year-to-date, down significantly from an average of 19.8 last year. We
think this moderation in the survey's readings is consistent with a broader
slowdown in the manufacturing sector."
