The Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago releases its National Activity Index for August. Consensus estimate is for a 0.32 reading, slightly more than July's 0.27 figure.

S&P CoreLogic releases its Case-Shiller National Home Price Index for July. The consensus call is for a 17% year-over-over jump compared with an 18% increase in June.

This past week Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell said that the housing market probably needs to go through a "correction" and that property prices "were going up at an unsustainably fast level."
