  2. The UK, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand are on a long weekend through the 27th

Last weekend, the U.S. dollar saw a seesaw trade against the yen following the release of the November U.S. PCE deflator, which came in at 5.5% year-over-year—below the market forecast of 5.6%.The USD/JPY pair experienced volatility amid a gradual rise that had been underway since Asian trading hours, fluctuating between 132.506 and 133.116. During today’s Asian trading hours, it is trading around 132.596, remaining largely unchanged.

In the European currency market, the euro and the U.S. dollar remained in a stalemate, with the EUR/USD pair trading in a range between 1.0586 and 1.0633. From a technical perspective, the EUR/USD pair has been trading at the same level for over a week, and the Bollinger Bands are showing a tendency to contract.Although European and U.S. markets will be closed today and tomorrow, traders should be on the lookout for significant price movements when trading resumes.
