    Dallas Fed President Robert Kaplan: 3-4 interest rate hikes this year is “a reasonable base case”

    Dallas Fed President Robert Kaplan said in an interview with Bloomberg Television on Wednesday that he would have "bias" to continue the normalisation.

    "I would have a bias to want to move toward normalization. It comes with some risk. Every time we increase the federal funds rate, we're going to have to watch and see what the impact is," he said.

    Kaplan noted that officials should analyse and understand recent turmoil in international markets, and should not overreact.

    He noted that market turbulences may not reflect the U.S. economy.

    Dallas Fed president pointed out that he thinks 3-4 interest rate hikes this year is "a reasonable base case".

    Wall Street. Major U.S. stock-indexes fell

    Major U.S. stock-indexes fell on Wednesday. China exports fell just 1.4% in December, much less than the expected 8% drop. A 4% fall in imports was also much smaller than many had feared. Crude prices were up for the first time in eight days, also helped by a surprise decline in U.S. inventories. Oil briefly fell below the widely watched $30-per-barrel level on Tuesday.

    Most of Dow stocks in negative area (20 of 30). Top looser - E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company (DD, -2,20%). Top gainer - Exxon Mobil Corporation (XOM, +1.26%).

    Almost all of S&P sectors in negative area. Top looser - Services (-1,0%). Top gainer - Utilities (+0,5%).

    Boston Fed President Eric Rosengren: further interest rates will be gradual and depend on the incoming economic data

    Boston Fed President Eric Rosengren said in a speech on Wednesday that further interest rates will be gradual and depend on the incoming economic data.

    "The future path of the federal funds rate will depend on incoming economic data… Further increases in rates are in my view likely to be gradual," he said.

    Rosengren noted that there are downside risks to further interest rate hikes.

    "While the median forecast provides a reasonable estimate of the likely path of the federal funds rate, my own view is that such a forecast does have downside risks. These downside risks reflect continued headwinds from weakness within countries that represent many of our major trading partners," Boston Fed president said.

    "Further tightening will require data continuing to be strong enough that growth will be at or above potential, so that Federal Reserve policymakers can be confident that inflation will reach our 2 percent target," he added.

    Rosengren is a voting member of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) this year.

    European stocks close: stocks closed mixed as oil prices traded higher and on the better-than-expected Chinese trade data

    Stock indices traded mixed as oil prices traded higher and on the better-than-expected Chinese trade data. The Chinese Customs Office released its trade data on Wednesday. China's trade surplus climbed to $58.2 billion in December from $54.1 billion in November, beating expectations for a decline to a surplus of $53.0 billion. Exports fell at an annual rate of 1.4% in December, while imports slid at an annual rate of 7.6%, the fourteenth consecutive decline. In yuan denomination, exports climbed 2.3% in December, while imports dropped 4.0%.

    Meanwhile, the economic data from the Eurozone was weaker than expected. Eurostat released its industrial production data for the Eurozone on Wednesday. Industrial production in the Eurozone dropped 0.7% in November, missing expectations for a 0.3% decrease, after a 0.8% rise in October. October's figure was revised up from a 0.6% increase.

    The fall was driven by declines in durable consumer goods, energy and capital output.

    On a yearly basis, Eurozone's industrial production gained 1.1% in November, missing expectations for a 1.3% rise, after a 2.0% increase in October. October's figure was revised up from a 1.9% gain.

    The increase was mainly driven by rises in durable consumer goods, non-durable consumer goods, intermediate goods output and capital goods.

    The German Finance Ministry said on Wednesday that the country's budget surplus was €12.1 billion in 2015, up from the previous forecast of a €6.1 billion surplus. The surplus was driven by strong tax revenues and one-off effects.

    German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schäuble said that he expects a balanced budget in 2016 if the domestic labour market will remain robust. He added that the surplus will be used to cover migration-related costs.

    European Central Bank (ECB) Executive Board member Peter Praet: effect of low oil prices on inflation in the Eurozone is not temporary

    European Central Bank (ECB) Executive Board member Peter Praet said in an interview with the German newspaper Süddeutsche Zeitung that effect of low oil prices on inflation in the Eurozone is not temporary.

    "Although falling oil prices have recently played a significant role in low inflation, the effect on inflation is not negligible or temporary," he said.

    Praet pointed out that the ECB's stimulus measures helped to stop a decline in inflation expectations and to reduce the risk of deflation.

    He noted that governments should implement structural reforms.

    Swiss National Bank Vice Chairman Fritz Zurbruegg: price stability is important for competitiveness of companies

    The Swiss National Bank (SNB) Vice Chairman Fritz Zurbruegg said on Wednesday that price stability is important for competitiveness of companies.

    "By fulfilling its mandate and ensuring price stability, the SNB makes an indirect contribution to the competitiveness of the Swiss economy," he said.

    Zurbruegg added that "there is no contradiction between a strong currency and an economy's competitiveness" in the long term.

    Zurbruegg noted that the Swiss franc is overvalued, and it is necessary for the central bank to impose negative interest rates and to intervene in the foreign exchange market.

    Moderate growth in the Eurozone is expected in the first and second quarter of 2016

    The German IFO, the French Insee and the Italian Istat institutes said in its survey on Tuesday that the economy in the Eurozone is expected to continue to recover moderately. Real gross domestic product (GDP) is expected to rise by 1.5% in 2015, and by 0.4% in the first and second quarter of 2016. The growth will be driven by private consumption.

    According to IFO, Insee, and Istat, inflation in the Eurozone is expected to be 0.5% year-on-year in the first quarter of 2016 and 0.4% year-on-year in the second quarter of 2016. Low energy prices weigh on inflation.

    Downside risks to the Eurozone's economy are geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and the ongoing structural transformation of the Chinese economy, the survey said.

    Richmond Fed President Jeffrey Lacker: turmoil in China has no effect on the U.S. economy

    Richmond Fed President Jeffrey Lacker said on Tuesday that turmoil in China has no effect on the U.S. economy.

    "I think our real economies are linked less than you would think from the extent to which our equity markets seem to have moved in parallel with movements in their exchange rate and their equity markets," he said.

    Lacker noted the U.S. stock market's volatility "looks like an overreaction".

    02:00 China Trade Balance, bln December 54.1 53 58.2

    The U.S. dollar advanced as calmer financial markets boosted appetite for currencies that offer higher yield rather than safe-haven assets.

    The Australian and New Zealand dollars rose on better-than-expected trade balance data from China. The country's trade surplus rose to $58.1 billion in December from $54.1 billion in November. Exports rose by 2.3% in December vs a decline of 8.0% expected by economists. Imports fell by 4.0%. Exports fell by 1.8% over 2015 because of weak demand overseas. Meanwhile imports fell by 13.2%.

    Oil prices climbed

    West Texas Intermediate futures for February delivery rebounded to $30.81 (+1.22%), while Brent crude climbed to $31.15 (+0.94%) after breaching the $30 dollar threshold. However some analysts are still not sure that $30 per barrel was the bottom and that there are signs of trend reversal.

    Investors also paid attention to comments by Nigerian oil minister, who said that some OPEC members were calling for an emergency meeting. Cartel members failed to agree on solutions needed to support oil prices when they met on December 4.

    This week analysts from Barclays, Macquarie and Bank of America Merrill Lynch revised down their 2016 oil price forecasts. Later today the Energy Information Administration will release its weekly report on U.S. crude oil inventories.

    Gold declined slightly

    Gold is currently at $1,084.60 (-0.06%). Bullion declined further as a rebound in stocks reduced demand for safe-haven assets. A stronger greenback put additional pressure on gold. The dollar is likely to do well in 2016 with market participants expecting the Federal Reserve to raise rates further this year. This would increase the opportunity cost of holding the non-interest-paying precious metal and reduce demand.
