U.S. stock futures were flat ahead of the opening bell. Volume is expected to be light.
The Institute for Supply Management will release its monthly manufacturing index at 10 a.m. ET, and the Census Bureau will publish data on construction spending.
U.S. stocks wrapped up a stellar first quarter Thursday, with the S&P 500 finishing at a new high. U.S. markets were closed on Good Friday.
"We're coming off a great first quarter," said Art Hogan, managing director at Lazard Capital Markets, adding that "volume will most likely be light" on the Monday following Easter.
Thin trading could result in volatility, he said, even if there are no major news events.
