It has started my Fast Money friends – the unofficial start of summer and the official start of lower trading volumes and slower news cycles. Or so we thought last year. If last summer taught us anything, it is that the summer trading doldrums can often be a perilous time to trade. Just think back to the gut-churning volatility that pulled so many of the Wall Street set from their summer homes in the Hamptons to the hot, sweaty caldron of fear & greed that was the financial landscape in '07. If this week was any indication of what the summer may bring, I only have one word of advice: Watch Fast Money. Because while the beach may beckon, taking your eyes off the trading screens may be a luxury you cannot afford. The Dow lost 3% this week as oil continues its climb to once unimaginable highs. The financial were also clobbered this week on the realization that higher oil could hamstring the Fed and force the nation's top moneyman to hike interest rates – and oh, yeah, there is the sinking suspicion that many brokerage stocks are sitting on more lousy loans. And with that, we turn our attention to next week's abbreviated trading sessions (market's closed on Monday), where the earnings news will trickle to a halt. The three big names to keep an eye on next week will be Costco, Dell and Tiffany's. Costco and Tiffany's provide a nice snapshot of the health of the consumer on booth ends of the spectrum. We saw how high oil has boosted the bottom line at Wal-Mart. Will it do the same for big-box retailer Costco? Also, will we finally see a slowdown from the high-end consumer when (TIF) posts results? The Fast Money will be watching. Also worth watching will be the slew of economic news to hit the tape, including consumer confidence and new home sales on Tuesday, durable goods on Wednesday, and GDP on Thursday. In the absence of earnings news, those data points could really move the tape, especially if volume is thin. One event sure to more biotech names will be the annual ASCO conference, which kicks off in Chicago on Friday. We will be all over that next week. Remember, an open market, especially one with thin trading volume, is a market in which you can make money. So let's try to do that all next week. Enjoy the extended weekend. .

DOUBLE DOSE OF DATA: The S&P/Case-Shiller Home Price Index is released Tuesday along with New Home Sales. Diana Olick parses the housing price index and new home sales to get clue on the state of the current housing market. It's likely to be a gloomy day for housing data, with no signs of turnaround in sight.

AND THEN THERE WERE TWO: The race for the White House narrows as reports claim Obama is quietly searching for a running mate and signaling the race against Clinton is over. While Clinton holds on hope that she can still pull off a nomination because of her total support in the popular vote, but is the race over for Hillary? John Harwood wraps up the latest from the weekend and previews the Idaho primary.

LUXURY AUTOS SUCKING WIND: The sluggish economy is hitting car sales across the board, including sales of luxury automobiles. Residual values are down as those selling used luxury cars find the secondary buyers (who are more price conscious) are leery of buying larger luxury rides that don't get great mileage and require higher octane gas. Lexus, BMW, Cadillac, Audi, Infiniti and Porsche are all down. Only Mercedes is higher this year.
