The day's major U.S. economic news includes the Institute for Supply Management's Purchasing Managers Index for the manufacturing sector for May due at 10:00 a.m. ET (1400 GMT). Analysts in a Reuters survey expect a reading of 50.7, unchanged from April, with a reading above 50 indicating growth.

Also on tap is construction spending data for April at 10:00 a.m. ET, expected to show an increase of 0.8 percent, up from a 1.7 percent decline in March.

"The ISM data is expected to be consistent with the sluggish growth we have been seeing in the sector, which eases concerns that the Fed is going to change its stimulus program," said Peter Cardillo, chief market economist at Rockwell Global Capital in New York.

"This is going to be another week of volatile trading with ongoing guessing games on what the Fed might or might not do."

In a week of heavy data, the most important will be the May nonfarm payrolls report, scheduled for Friday. Reuters' survey of analysts shows an expected 170,000 jobs added, slightly higher than the previous 165,000.

The Fed's Beige Book survey of regional conditions is on tap for Wednesday.
