MNI EUROPEAN MARKETS ANALYSIS: Japan FinMin Warns On FX Again

MNI (SYDNEY)
  • It has been a quiet session as the Christmas break approaches. Markets didn't move much off the BoJ or RBA minutes. The only data of note was a plunge in South Korean consumer sentiment, which follows recent onshore political turmoil.
  • Yen firmed on fresh FX warnings from the Japan FinMin, but aggregate moves were modest. It was quiet in the bond space.
  • Regional equities were mostly higher. A raft of headlines crossed around a China fiscal policy meeting, but details remained light.
  • Coming up we just have US data in terms of the Richmond Fed index and Philly Fed non-manufacturing index due before the Christmas break.
