Pending home sales picked up in December as solid increases in the South and West offset weakening activity in the Northeast and Midwest.

The Pending Home Sales Index (PHS), a leading indicator of housing activity, measures housing contract activity, and is based on signed real estate contracts for existing single-family homes, condos and co-ops. Because a home goes under contract a month or two before it is sold, the Pending Home Sales Index generally leads Existing Home Sales by a month or two.

The growth of the private sector fell in the three months through January, data from the Confederation of British Industry showed on Monday.

The growth rate dropped to 10 percent compared to 17 percent in December.

The picture was mixed between the various sectors during the period. Retailers reported decent growth in the previous three months, and the growth of production remained stable among producers, albeit at a slower pace. At the same time, the volume of the service sector has not changed.

In general, expectations have been growing at a level that will be maintained at the same rate over the next three months.

"While companies seek Brexit as a success, progress in improving the performance of the UK is the number one priority," said Rain Newton-Smith, chief economist at CBI.

Eurozone economic confidence strengthened in January, monthly survey data from the European Commission showed, cited by rttnews.

The economic confidence index rose to 108.2 in January from 107.8 in December. The score was expected to remain unchanged at 107.8.

The mildly positive developments in euro-area sentiment resulted from improvements in industry, services and consumer confidence which outweighed decreases in retail trade and construction confidence.

"Despite JPY strengthening in the new year, our positioning indicator suggests the market's short JPY position remains at multi-year extremes.

While first-tier data on the labour market and industrial output will attract some attention from the JPY next week, the main local focus will be the BoJ meeting and the Board's Outlook Report.

Over the past year, the JPY TWI has strengthened in the week of all but one of the BoJ meetings. Admittedly, BoJ meetings have usually occurred the same week as FOMC meetings, and a stubbornly dovish FOMC has contributed to JPY strength during those weeks.

While the FOMC also meets next week, its members have been sounding more hawkish and so could contribute to a breaking of this pattern. But we also see a risk of a more upbeat BoJ in its first Outlook Report for the year. Indeed, the weaker JPY in Q4 will lead to stronger inflation and, to some extent, cyclical data readings in the coming months. And JPY depreciation has already helped push medium-term inflation expectations higher. BoJ Governor Haruhiko Kuroda recently said that Japan's economy has improved a lot and that it will grow well above expectations.

There is also some risk of the BoJ scrapping its guidance as when it comes to bond purchases. The central bank may have stepped up purchases in bonds due in 5-10 years, but the increase is not fully offsetting the reduction in shorter-term purchases. Our economists note that the net increment in JGB holding in 2017 will be way below the present guidance of JPY80trn.

As such, a formal taper announcement cannot be excluded. Any announcement of a formal taper would likely contain some sticker shock and strengthen the JPY, as it would lose some of its appeal as a funding currency.

We still significant risk of further downside in JPY crosses".

In January 2017, the Economic Barometer reached a score of 101.7 points. This relates to a slight downward revision by 0.4 points compared to its December value (102.1, revised from 102.2). Positive impulses to the Barometer came from the construction and the export sector.

Negative signals to the January standing came from indicators related to the financial sector, private consumption and, in particular, to the hotel and restaurant industry. The indicators from the manufacturing sector neutralized each other.

The Gross Domestic Product generated by the Spanish economy shows a variation of 0.7% in the fourth quarter of 2016 compared to the previous quarter, according to Estimation of quarterly GDP. This rate is similar to that recorded in the quarter previous.

The annual variation of GDP in the fourth quarter of 2016 stands at 3.0%, two tenths Lower than in the third quarter (3.2%). By the temporary aggregation of the four quarters, the growth in volume of GDP in the The year 2016 is estimated at 3.2%.

"Year-to-date, the Dow Jones is up 1.71%, US 10Y yields are up 8bp and EUR/USD is 1 1/2 figure higher. Uncertainty is extraordinarily high given the lack of clarity on US economic policy, the risks of EU fragmentation with the near-term UK-EU Brexit negotiations, and the Dutch and French elections. Markets are struggling to grasp the policy uncertainties as the range of possible outcomes is so diverse. Hence, markets are trading sideways awaiting new information. Still, some markets are trending with German 10Y yields reaching the highest level in a year and bank stocks continuing their march higher.

We expected that there would be a market vacuum during H1 given the lofty expectations following Trump's win and the challenge he will face to enact fast fiscal stimulus. But it has surprised us how quickly the market vacuum arrived. This can be explained by positioning as the market was very short 10Y UST futures and long US dollars (USD) from the beginning of the year. The market is impatient and as the new US administration seems to have trade as its #1 priority we are not any wiser on fiscal policy (see Chart 1). However, during Trump's first 100 days in office we should know more about the new US government's fiscal policy plans. The market is likely to be significantly less short UST futures and long USDs than a couple of weeks back.

Where does this leave us in terms of markets? We see risks skewed towards higher US yields as positioning is probably cleaner now than a couple of weeks back and we will get more details on US fiscal stimulus plans during Trump's first 100 days in office. Due to the strong US economic data recently, we will look for signs in next week's FOMC statement on whether the next Fed rate hike could come as soon as March or May. Core European curves should continue to steepen from 5Y and beyond even though they are already at elevated levels (see Chart 2). A dovish ECB should help to reflate the European economy, driving longer-end yields higher.

Over the coming 1-3 months, we expect the USD to strengthen in line with the receipt of more detail on the new US government's fiscal stimulus plans and probably other tariff and tax measures during Trump's first 100 day in office. We expect JPY-crosses to be the worst hit by reflation, with the USD/JPY likely to head up towards mid-December highs of 118/119".

Retail sales in Japan fell a seasonally adjusted 1.7 percent on month in December, the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry said on Monday, cited by rttnews.

That missed expectations for a decline of 0.5 percent following the 0.2 percent increase in November.

On a yearly basis, retail sales added 0.6 percent - also shy of forecasts for a gain of 1.7 percent, which would have been unchanged from the November reading.

Large retailer sales dropped an annual 1.3 percent, missing forecasts for a fall of 1.0 percent following the 0.3 percent drop in the previous month.
