Meanwhile, personal income in the United States probably increased at a monthly pace of 0.3% during February, or at the same pace as a month ago. Personal spending probably rose 0.3% as well last month, following another 0.4% increase in January. The official data is expected at 12:30 GMT.

At 13:55 GMT Thomson Reuters in cooperation with the University of Michigan will probably report that the final reading of their gauge of consumer confidence (based on 100% of results in the survey) probably was 80.5 this month, as the preliminary reading was announced at 79.9 on March 14th.
