XAU/USD: Gold moves below the 23.6% level. It seems that the current risk-off mood does not help bulls.
EU Market View
Looking ahead, highlights from the macroeconomic calendar include German GfK Consumer Confidence, US Weekly Jobs and Existing Home Sales, Eurozone Consumer Confidence (Flash), CBRT Rate Decision, BoE's Bailey and Haldane, Fed's Kaplan and Barkin, ECB's Panetta and Hakkarainen speeches. Differences continue to narrow in US stimulus talks but more work needs to be done. Pelosi and Mnuchin will speak again today, according to her aide.
