CAD jumps as Trump clears the way to build oil pipelines
• Pres. Trump signed orders that clear the way to build an oil pipeline from Canada to US.
• CAD surged, as this could imply higher profits for oil companies, better terms of trade for Canada and more oil investment.
• But this is preliminary. If formally approved by US State Dep. (60 days), CAD may gain a bit more.

UK Supreme Court decides Parliament should approve Brexit

Overnight: Australia’s Q4 CPI misses estimates
• Both headline and trimmed mean CPI rates for Q4 missed forecasts slightly. AUD tumbled.
• Not serious enough to trigger an RBA rate cut. But may ease some of AUD’s recent gains.

Today’s highlights:
• Germany: Ifo survey for Jan. Both the current conditions and the expectations indices are exp. to rise a bit, which could support DAX somewhat.
• New Zealand: CPI data for Q4. Expectations are for a very strong acceleration, which could diminish notably the likelihood for any further RBNZ easing and thereby, support NZD.
• Speakers: BoE Governor Mark Carney and Riksbank Governor Stefan Ingves.
