What, you're still here? Why? Do you think something is going to happen? Well, if 2022 is anything to go by, anything goes. It does seem like the market is in full wind -down mode now, though. The Santa rally finally got a brief lift-off on Wednesday and hopes were high that it may continue this morning.
The European session was positive and took its cue from the strong gains in Asia. But as we approach the early stages of the New York session, things have stalled and turned lower in Europe. United States stock market futures are also taking a leg lower. No major catalysts, just a general sense of apathy.
Concerns are being raised that the Bank of Japan (BoJ) moves may see Japanese investors repatriate their enormous overseas holdings as they perhaps now catch some domestic yield. Early days, but this is something to watch for in 2023.
The US Dollar has recovered slightly and DXY is marginally lower at 104.10. Gold price is holding gains at $1,816. Bitcoin price is flat at $16,800.
European markets are mixed, Eurostoxx -0.3%, FTSE +0.2% and Dax -0.4%
US futures are all negative Dow S&P and Nasdaq all -0.25%.
