The personal consumption expenditure from the U.S. should decrease from privious call, might create some impact, probably not that much as there's a long weekend ahead of us due to memorial day on Monday in the U.S.

Traderess, if it was a normal week we might have some movement. But really the most important indicator today is the Bud indicator. This is the indicator that traders in Chicago and New York use on the Friday before a three day weekend to determine whether the leave at 12:00, 1:30, or 2:15 PM. If it is a 6 pack they leave at 2:15, but if it is a full keg, then they would leave at 12:00.
