There are no major US economic releases scheduled for Monday (consumer credit for March will be released at 3 PM ET). The discussion on Monday will mostly be about the elections in France and Greece, and what they means for the euro zone economy. The politicians in Greece will try to form a coalition government, and if that is not successful, there will be a new election.
