US Market View
World shares paused on Monday to assess a record-breaking month as the prospect of a vaccine-driven economic recovery next year and yet more free money from central banks eclipsed immediate concerns about the coronavirus pandemic. Weden's Riksbank surprised last week by expanding its bond purchase program and the European Central Bank is likely to follow in December. German 10-year Bund yield was down 1.1 basis points at -0.598%, its lowest since Nov. 9.
Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell testifies to Congress on Tuesday amid speculation of further policy action at its next meeting in mid-December. As a result, U.S. 10-year yields are ending the month almost exactly where they started at 0.84%, a solid performance given the exuberance in equities.
USA Key Point
- ECB's Lagarde supports that monetary policy cannot be as targeted as fiscal measures can be
- Italy November preliminary comes at CPI -0.2% vs -0.3% y/y than expected
- European equities creep higher after slightly softer start
- EUR/USD on approach to 1.2000
- Pound a little higher but price action still confined by key near-term levels

European Currencies Ahead of the Banks' Statements
On Thursday, the 2nd of February, the Bank of England will publish its report concerning interest rates and inflation data for the Eurozone. Professionals and investors anticipate that Andrew Bailey’s lead team of policy makers will likely raise interest rates to 4%; the highest in over a decade, for the tenth time in a row.
Will the FOMC Surprise the Markets?
The first FOMC meeting comes after a buildup of anticipation from traders and investors alike, as the markets await what posture the Fed will take regarding the interest rates; would there be a hike or a cut in interest rates? Recall that the Federal Open Market Committee had previously ended the year 2022 with a 50bps hike, and an indication from Powell, the committee chairman, that the Fed could consider raising interest rates by 75bps in the course of the year 2023.
