Market Mood
This week, markets will focus on key economic reports, including Friday’s U.S. jobs data, which is expected to show slower growth at 154,000 jobs for December and steady unemployment at 4.2%, potentially influencing Federal Reserve policy. The Fed will release its December meeting minutes on January 8, offering insights into policy debates, with speeches from officials providing further clarity. Globally, inflation remains in focus, with the Eurozone’s flash inflation data guiding potential ECB rate decisions and China’s CPI and PPI data shedding light on domestic demand and cost pressures. These events will shape market sentiment and provide a clearer picture of the global economy.
