Twas the night before Christmas (no, its not) and all through the economic data agenda not a thing was stirring not even ….

OK. That is not gonna work at all.

The next couple of weeks will be a bit light in the markets, with many participants taking a break. Trading will be thinned out. Markets are open though, so there may be some movement if you are still trading.

On the data agenda today in the timezone we'll get Australian private sector credit for November and also Singapore inflation data. Japanese data is light also, the All Industry Activity Index for October is due later in the afternoon.

ForexLive coverage will continue, but at a reduced pace.
