Investors were offered a US data pack for December just a moment ago. Core PCE inflation rose more than expected as the headline figure climbed to 1.5% YoY (vs expected 1.3% YoY). Personal income and personal spending data turned out to be better-than-expected, yet last month's figures were revised lower.
