April data from Chicago PMI is expected to show a slowdown in manufacturing following on from the announcement that the US' gross domestic product had hit a lower than expected 1.3 per cent.
Meanwhile, information regarding personal income and spending is due to be issued later today, while Thursday will see the release of first quarter productivity data.
Towards the end of the week a jobs report is set to be released while March factory orders information should be out by Wednesday.
