This week is proceeding without any significant macroeconomic triggers. Due to the New Year holidays, most global exchanges will be closed for about 2 days, likely keeping market activity low and volatility subdued. The key US labor market report (Non-Farm Payrolls) has been postponed until next week. Investors remain focused on the manufacturing purchasing managers’ indices (PMIs) for major economies, which can provide insight into the state of the manufacturing sector. In addition, the market will be watching weekly statistics on crude oil and natural gas inventories, as these data traditionally have a significant impact on energy price dynamics. It will also be important for investors to assess the minutes of the latest FOMC meeting for insights into monetary policy prospects and the tone of the committee’s discussion.

On Monday, market participants will focus on crude oil and natural gas inventory data, which was postponed from last week due to the Christmas holidays. These reports may set the tone for trading in the energy sector and influence short-term price dynamics. The situation on the oil market remains tense: rising inventories amid weakening demand are creating a negative balance and increasing pressure on prices in the medium term. If the statistics show another increase in reserves, this could be an additional catalyst for oil sell-offs.

On Tuesday, the key event will be the publication of the minutes of the last FOMC meeting. Given the approaching New Year holidays, the market is unlikely to show sharp price movements, but the document’s content remains important for shaping investor expectations. Particular attention will be paid to signals regarding the future course of US monetary policy in the coming months. A softer, more dovish rhetoric from the committee could raise expectations of an interest rate cut as early as the first quarter of 2026, putting pressure on the US dollar in the medium term.

Trading activity will be limited on Wednesday due to a shortened banking day in many regions: early closures are expected in Hong Kong, Singapore, New Zealand, and Australia, while banks in Japan, Germany, Switzerland, Sweden, and Norway will be completely closed. Against the backdrop of reduced liquidity, market movements are likely to remain subdued. The key focus of the day will be data on business activity in China. The predicted improvement in indicators could create a moderately positive mood and support Asian stock markets at the start of the new year.

On Friday, markets will focus on the publication of PMI business activity indices for leading economies. An improvement in these indicators is usually seen as a positive signal and may support the respective national currencies. However, the key factor remains not only the index’s dynamics but also its position relative to the 50-point mark, which separates the expansion phase from the decline. Values above this level indicate growth in economic activity, while values below 50 signal continuing risks of a slowdown.
