The economic calendar start off with Canadian retail sales for February to be released at 8:30 AM.

• Canada retail sales expectations -0.4% versus -0.6%. Ex autos -0.4% versus +0.2%
• University of Michigan sentiment for April will be released at 10 AM ET with expectations of 50.8. That is down from 57.0 last month but equal to the preliminary guesstimate. The current conditions is expected of 56.5 down from 63.8 last month. The forward expectations expected of 47.1 versus 52.6 last month. The soft data has been weekend this is one of them.

Other than that, the markets will continue to digest the comments from it’s Pres. Trump in his Times Magazine 100-day review interview.

I don’t see any scheduled central bank comments but will be on alert for those of course.
