Monday featured Chinese PBoC rates, UK GDP revisions, Mexican and Brazilian indicators, US PCE inflation, and Canadian producer prices.

Tuesday highlighted Mexican inflation and trade, Brazilian mid-month CPI, US GDP and durable goods, and Canadian GDP.

Wednesday was light due to Christmas Eve holidays in many markets, with US jobless claims and Mexican unemployment.

Thursday was a major holiday (Christmas) in most countries, with only limited Japanese data.

Friday closed the week quietly due to Boxing Day holidays, with Russian indicators and Brazilian lending data.
