The Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond released its survey of manufacturing activity on Tuesday. The composite index for manufacturing declined to 2 in January from 6 in December, missing expectations for a fall to 3.

The decrease was mainly driven by declines in shipments, new orders and employment.

Shipments sub-index slid to -6 in January from -0 in December.

New orders sub-index was down to 4 from 8.

The employment sub-index declined to 9 from 12.

"The volume of new orders grew modestly this month, although shipments decreased. Hiring increased at a slightly slower pace compared to last month, although average wages continued to increase at a moderate pace in January, and the average workweek lengthened. Raw materials prices rose at a somewhat slower pace, while prices of finished goods rose at a faster pace than in December," the survey said.

"Consumer confidence improved slightly in January, following an increase in December.

For now, consumers do not foresee the volatility in financial markets as having a negative impact on the economy," the director of economic indicators at The Conference Board, Lynn Franco, said.

A reading above 50 indicates expansion in economic activity.

The drop was driven by a weaker output growth.

The Bank of England's (BoE) Monetary Policy Committee member Kristin Forbes said in a speech on Monday that wage growth is not strong enough to start raising interest rates.

"Labour costs are not yet at the levels consistent with inflation meeting the 2% target sustainably in the UK," she said.

HSBC lowered its oil forecasts. The bank expects the Brent crude to be $45 a barrel in 216, down from its previous estimate of $60 a barrel. HSBC noted that the reasons for the cut are higher exports from Iran, higher U.S. crude inventories, market turmoil in China, a stronger U.S. dollar and a rise in speculative pressure on the futures market.

"It will probably take until H2 2016 or even 2017 before it moves back fully into balance," HSBC analysts Gordon Gray, Christoffer Gundersen, Kim Fustier and Thomas Hillboldt said in a research note.

Japanese Finance Minister Taro Aso said on Tuesday that he will support further stimulus measures by the Bank of Japan (BoJ).

The yen gained against the U.S. dollar amid declines in oil prices and Asian stocks. These circumstances led to higher demand for the safe-haven currency. The yen gained despite dowish comments from Japanese Finance Minister Taro Aso, who expressed support for the Bank of Japan's will to act "without hesitation". "We hope the BOJ will continue its efforts to achieve its price stability target while taking into consideration economic and price conditions," Aso said.

The euro traded range-bound ahead of euro zone inflation data scheduled for this week. Consumer prices are expected to have risen by 0.4% y/y in January after a 0.2% increase in December.

France, Spain and Belgium will release their fourth quarter GDP reports. These data will help market participants assess strength of the euro zone economy.

Economists surveyed by Reuters now expect the U.S. Federal Reserve to raise interest rates three times this year rather than four.
