As a reminder, the Tokyo market is open for business today (the 26th), as is the US market.

  • At 2350GMT the minutes from the November 19-20 BOJ Monetary Policy meeting are scheduled for release.
  • Later today, at 0500GMT, is the release of Small Business Confidence out of Japan.

Much, much later, at 1400GMT we start to get some figures out of the US:

  • 1400GMT Case Shiller House Price indices
  • 1500GMT Richmond Fed Manufacturing Survey

The UK and Europe are still on holiday on the 26th, so expect thin, relatively illiquid FX markets, with spreads a little wider than normal. Not a great trading environment; but if you are trading, have a great day. If you’re not trading – enjoy the continuing holiday!
