  • European markets set to open slightly higher

  • Monthly US data for October

  • Revision of UoM consumer sentiment reading for December

European stock market futures point to a slightly higher opening of today's session for blue chips indices from the Old Continent. Today is the final pre-Christmas session on many European stock markets. Liquidity conditions are expected to be thin, especially as the economic calendar for the European morning session is almost empty. Things get a bit more interesting in the afternoon with US data scheduled for release. PCE core reading for November at 1:30 pm BST is a key report of the day. However, as the Fed has already hinted that it will tighten policy further next year, inflation data may not have a big impact on the markets.
