USDA's weekly export sales will be out at 7:30 a.m. CDT Friday, the same time as reports on U.S. personal income and consumer spending for April. The PCE inflation index for April will also be released at 7:30 a.m., a factor in the Federal Reserve's interest rate decisions. Later Friday morning, Stats Canada will release Canada's first-quarter GDP.
Weather
A system in Canada pushed a front into the Upper Midwest to Central Plains which has stalled and will continue to produce areas of scattered showers throughout Friday. The South-Central U.S., which is between that front and another stalled boundary, will continue to produce heavier rain and some severe thunderstorms. Flooding is again possible in some areas that have seen it recently down there.
