Just a quick update on the latest news re the US tax bill. This via Reuters, wth nothing too much new or surprising:
Republicans in the U.S. House of Representatives will not reveal their bill until Wednesday
National Association of Home Builders is lodging objections (over a change for home mortgage deductions)
- says the bill would harm U.S. home prices by marginalizing the value of mortgage interest deductions as an incentive for buying homes
- "We're opposed to the tax bill without the tax credit in there, and we'll be working very aggressively to see it defeated," NAHB chief executive Jerry Howard told Reuters

If anyone would like to add further updates in the comments, please do so. I suspect we will have to await Monday US time for substantive further news on tax though.
