The Census Bureau reports retail sales data for June. Consumer spending is expected to grow 0.4% month over month, following a 0.3% increase in May. Excluding autos, spending is seen rising 0.3%, two-tenths of a percentage point more than previously. U.S. consumers have proved much more resilient than the majority of economists predicted at the start of the year.

The National Association of Home Builders releases its Housing Market Index for July. Economists forecast a 57 reading, two points higher than in June. The index has risen for six straight months and is at its highest level in nearly a year, despite 30-year mortgage rates close to a two-decade high. Solid demand and a lack of existing inventory have buoyed home builders’ sentiment.
