10:08 ET Help Wanted Index : The Conference Board's index of help wanted advertising fell to a new 40 year low of 38 in March. While the index only measures print advertising and therefore is a bit outdated in the world of e*advertising, the lowest level since Nov 1963 obviously reflects the weakness in the labor market also seen in today's claims data as well as the back to back plunge in nonfarm payrolls.

08:35 ET Initial Claims worse than expected : Initial Claims came rose 8K to 455K, while this is a volatile report it was significantly worse than expected.
