European Market View
Asian equity markets were subdued after failing to shrug-off the weak lead from the US where major indices were dragged lower. Asian shares stumbled lower in afternoon trade on Friday, reversing earlier gains as rising COVID-19 cases in China reinforced investor concerns over the prospects for a global economic recovery. Earlier on Friday, an Asian regional share index had edged near record highs after US President-elect Joe Biden proposed a $1.9 trillion stimulus plan to jump-start the world's largest economy and accelerate its response to COVID-19. Looking ahead, highlights from the macroeconomic calendar include UK GDP, US retail sales, NY Fed manufacturing, industrial production, Uni. of Michigan, earnings from JP Morgan, Wells Fargo, and Citigroup.
