Euro area CPI expected to accelerate to 1% YoY

Canadian GDP growth expected at 7.2% QoQ annualized in Q4
European futures markets point to a lower opening of today's cash session following a downbeat trading in Asia. Economic calendar for the day is light. Flash CPI release from the euro area is a key event in the morning and may result in elevated volatility on the EUR market. CAD will get a chance to move on Q4 GDP release from Canada (1:30 pm GMT) while oil traders will focus on oil inventory estimates from API.
Oil may also react more strongly to incoming news as OPEC+ meeting is scheduled for the later part of the week and there are some disagreements between Saudi Arabia and Russia.
