Economic Releases
8:30 am EST
- The Producer Price Index for April is estimated to rise .4% versus a 1.1% gain in March.
- The PPI Ex Food & Energy for April is estimated to rise .2% versus a .2% gain in March.

Other Potential Market Movers
- The weekly retail sales reports, IDB/TIPP Economic Optimism, (TMO) analyst meeting, Bear Stearns Global Transports Conference, JMP Securities Conference, UBS Global Oil & Gas Conference, Lehman Financial Services Conference and JPMorgan Technology Conference could also impact trading today.

BOTTOM LINE: Asian indices are mostly lower, weighed down by financial and real estate shares in the region. I expect US equities to open mixed and to weaken into the afternoon, finishing modestly lower. The Portfolio is 75% net long heading into the day.
