Housing market data from US, retail sales from Canada
European index futures point to a lower opening of the cash session on the Old Continent today. Bank of Japan's decision to widen the band around target 10-year yield from 0.25% to 0.50%, essentially delivering a rate hike of up to 25 bp. JPY spiked on the news while equity markets plunged. While index futures managed to recover some losses, USDJPY continues to trade near daily lows.
Day ahead includes some second tier data that may influence some short-term market moves, given thinner pre-Christmas volatility. Those include jobs data from Poland, housing market data from the United States or retail sales report from Canada. Oil traders will look for hints in weekly API report on oil inventories.
