Futures traders expect the Australian sharemarket to shed nine points when trading resumes on 25 May 2015. The market is likely to take its cue from the US, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500 losing ground on 22 May. Meanwhile, investors will be awaiting the release of the capital expenditure survey data for the March quarter, which Paul Bloxham of HSBC expects to be similar to the data for the December 2014 quarter.
