Economics data may quicken stroll into 2020
AS 2019 comes to a close, market activity is likely to remain tepid, with traders still making their return from their holiday breaks.
That said, liquidity in the region's markets will likely pick up towards the end of the week, with the new year ushered in this Wednesday. The market will watch out for key macroeconomic figures that are due at the start of a month.
While there has been a lack of fresh leads, market watchers have said the confirmation of a US-China "Phase One" trade deal and clarity on Brexit should continue to support equities to close the year out positively.
