Asian markets followed Wall Street and continued their declines with repeated concerns about slowing growth. After a strong sell-off in the US (SP500 down -2.08%), the Asian stock market saw no other option but to connect to pessimism. Chinese Shanghai Composite falls 0.76%, and Japanese Nikkei has decreased by 1.82%. In the currency market, an increased turnover resulted in small changes in exchange rates: EUR / USD stands at 1.1340, and USD / JPY drifts just above 112.50. NZD stands out as it increased to 0.6850 USD after reading the ANZ business confidence index: in December it rose to -24.1 from -37.1.

Other important macroeconomic events that are worth keeping an eye on are Housing Starts and Building Permits data from the US. No speeches are scheduled from today as well.
