The reading on new home sales from the Census Bureau is expected to slide slightly for the month of September.

Analysts project new home sales to decrease by 1.0% from the prior month to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 600,000.

Last month, new home sales dropped precipitously, falling by 7.9% from the month before. This, however, followed a 13.8% increase for the month of July, which was the strongest since July 2007.

The number will cross at 10 a.m. ET, and we'll have the number right as it crosses.
