CFD Indices – Hang Seng Index Slipped On Concerns Over COVID-19 In China.

Market News

    • U.S. stock futures were tracking in a tight range during Thursday’s evening deals, with markets remaining closed for the Thanksgiving public holiday. European markets remained upbeat on Thursday as investors assessed the latest meeting minutes from the U.S. Fed.
    • Tokyo’s core consumer price index rose 3.6% in November on an annualized basis, more than the 3.5% expected in a Reuters poll, marking the fastest annual pace Japan’s capital has seen since April 1982, and significantly above the Bank of Japan’s inflation target of 2%.
    • Oil prices fell Thursday as the market digests the possibility of a higher-than-expected price cap on Russian crude. European Union governments have not yet agreed and are currently discussing the proposal, but a price cap at this level would likely mean that Russia will continue to sell its oil, reducing the risk of a supply shortage in global oil markets.
