Markets
There are a host of important economic reports on Friday morning, including personal income, consumer spending and sentiment, and core inflation. We'll also be looking for additional comments from the Federal Reserve conference. Perhaps most importantly, traders will be focused on any changes to the weather outlook for the central U.S, and of course, more China demand.
Weather
Thunderstorms with locally heavy rain and possible damaging winds are in store for the northern Midwest Friday. We'll also see rain in portions of the southern and eastern Midwest, Mid South and Delta from tropical depression Laura. Other crop areas will be dry. Temperatures will be cool north, seasonal to above normal central and southeast and very hot southwest.
