Economic calendar: Pre-Christmas avalanche of data

08:36 23 December 2020
  • European markets seen opening flat

  • US jobless claims, survey and housing market data

  • Monthly GDP release from Canada

European markets are expected to launch today's cash trading more or less flat. Trump's refusal to sign the economic relief bill caused a minor overnight pullback but losses were erased already. A point to note is that today is the final full trading day of the week as many markets will either stay shut or close early tomorrow. Because of that a lot of data will be released today.
