ATFX Market Outlook, 2019 Dec 24
 
Personal opinions today: 
 
U.S. durable goods orders unexpectedly fell in November after a 2% drop in expectations of a 1.5% rise. U.S. new home sales also fell in November from the previous month. The dollar fell, European currencies, commodity currencies and gold and silver prices generally rose, and crude oil prices have adjusted. But Dow futures continued to rise on hopes that the U.S. trade department will soon sign a trade deal with China.
 
Stock markets in several countries were closed or closed early ahead of the Christmas holiday today, with some contracts closing early. On the economic front, only the Richmond Fed manufacturing index for December and the U.S. crude oil inventories last week were released at tomorrow morning. Before the Christmas holiday, assuming the global stock markets and contracts in several countries will be closed early.
