By Nicholas Jasinski 

U.S. stock and bond markets will be closed Monday for Memorial Day. A handful of major companies report later this week, with the economic-data highlight being jobs Friday.

HP and Salesforce.com will report on Tuesday, followed by Chewy, GameStop, and Hewlett Packard Enterprise on Wednesday. CrowdStrike Holdings, Hormel Foods, Lululemon Athletica, and Okta will be Thursday's earnings highlights.

There are also several annual shareholders meetings scheduled for this week, including Alphabet, Comcast, and Walmart on Wednesday and Netflix, Nvidia, and PayPal Holdings on Thursday.

It will be a busier week for economic data. Friday will bring the jobs report for May from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Economists' average forecast is for a gain of 317,500 nonfarm payrolls and for an unemployment rate of 3.5%.

Other data out this week will include the Conference Board's Consumer Confidence Index for May on Tuesday, followed by the ISM's Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index for May on Wednesday. The Services PMI for May will be out on Friday.

The Conference Board releases its Consumer Confidence Index for May. Economists forecast a 4.7% month-over-month decline to 102. That would be the lowest figure for the index since February 2021. Retail spending has remained robust, even as consumer confidence has waned.

The labor market remains very tight, but more and more companies have recently announced layoffs or hiring freezes. Both Amazon.com and Walmart recently said that they were overstaffed.
