The U.S. Treasuries fell during late afternoon session Monday ahead of today’s speech from FOMC member Williams amid an otherwise, silent trading day.

It should be a relatively quiet for US dataflow ahead of Thursday’s Thanksgiving holiday. Housing market indicators include November’s NAHB housing index (today), October’s housing starts (tomorrow) and existing home sales figures (Wednesday).
Wednesday will also bring preliminary durable goods orders data for October, along with the Conference Board’s Leading index for the same month and the revised University of Michigan’s consumer sentiment survey for November. Supply-wise, the US Treasury will sell 10-year TIPS on Wednesday, Daiwa Capital Markets reported.
Meanwhile, the S&P 500 Futures slipped 0.08 percent to 2,740.75 by 11:15GMT, while at 11:00GMT, the FxWirePro's Hourly Dollar Strength Index remained neutral at -16.237 (a reading above +75 indicates a bullish trend, while that below -75 a bearish trend).
