Black Friday Kicks Off US Consumer Spending

 With the exception of the Eurozone meetings that are ongoing in Europe, Monday will be a quiet day for economic reports, with nothing major coming from any country.  Barring any news from the Eurozone summit, we should see a relatively quiet trading day.  The Yen opened stronger today in the first hour of trading in Asia, despite reports from the BoJ that monetary easing is on the horizon to weaken the Yen, which has been in a 3+ year uptrend.  Trading since the initial pop has been quiet and flat.  Expect similar moves for the London and New York open, with the EUR dropping based on results of Spanish elections.  Overall, Monday should be a range bound day.
