Asian equity indexes mixed; Trump and US Q4 GDP in focus
Asian markets were
mixed on Friday as market players digested confusing remarks from President
Trump, while keeping an eye on the US economic agenda.
The Dow Jones
industrial average once again ended the previous session at a record high on
after Caterpillar and 3M reported better-than-expected quarterly earnings.
However, gains were
capped by remarks from President Donald Trump, who said under his administration
the greenback will get "stronger and stronger".
The S&P 500
ended 0.1 percent to the upside at 2,839.25, while the Nasdaq composite
finished with a similar variation lower at 7,411.16.
Market participants
will be focusing on the Davos forum, where President Donald Trump is expected
to speak later in the day. Attention will be mainly on the dollar and its
dynamic.
Trump is likely to
emphasize the importance of his “America First” policies, including the
withdrawal from the North American free-trade agreement (NAFTA) and or the
Paris’ Global Climate Change agreement.
Speeches by Bank of
England Governor Mark Carney and Bank of Japan Governor Kuroda are set as of
14:00 GMT. These two speakers will be carefully examined over policy issues.
