S&P 500 barely changes as investors hold tight ahead of inflation data

A Federal Reserve Bank of New York survey, released on Monday, found that Americans see inflation at 3.3% a year from now from March's 3% while they expect inflation three years from now at 2.8%. This followed a University of Michigan report on Friday that showed U.S. consumer sentiment sagged to a six-month low in May as households worried about the cost of living.
