Oil prices Amp Up as the Dollar Weakens
Oil prices edged higher as the dollar weaken and the expectations about Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) en masse with other producers will reduce its output since it's part of the deal in curbing the worldwide overproduction.
According to traders the prices appears to be buoyant due to the sluggish stance of greens which made fuel cost cheaper for countries that utilize foreign currencies
The oil further accumulated support from the issued reduction for crude production which includes major producers in Russia.
OPEC also mentioned that they would cut down the quantity they produced with 1.2 million barrels each day to 32.5 million bpd starting 1st of January. However, there are assumptions that the Austria-based company will not totally execute the declared cutback whereas the agreement of 50 to 80 percent are adequate to support petroleum purchase.

SocGen also mentioned the fiscal growth rate of the country for 2017 is 6.6 percent versus the previous result of 7.3 percent. The bank further expects for a 7.2 percent, lesser than the earlier prediction of 7.7 percent, for the fiscal year 2018 which will end on March 2019.
India laid out its demonetization program since November with more than 50 days from now, causing an 86% impact on the currency circulation within the country.
The 500 ($7.35) and 1,000 ($14.70) rupees were replaced with 500 and 2,000 rupee notes.
The Jakarta-based investment firm reviewed the research from All India Manufacturers' Organization (AIMO), which showed that there are 35% job losses within the small scale and micro industries and suffered 50% decline in the revenue, 34 days after the demonetization program is set forth. However, in March 2017, the figures will likely drop into 60% in employment while 55% reduction in revenue as stated by AIMO, it’s because these sectors are highly dependent on cash transactions.

Pound Surges, USD Plummets after Trump, May Comments
The sterling pound finally increased in value after a long slump after UK PM Theresa May outlined her plans for the hard Brexit process, therefore clearing up some of the Brexit-related confusions and placating investors. Meanwhile, US president-elect Donald Trump has recently commented on the strength of the dollar, saying that the USD’s current value might be “too strong” for the US economy to handle. This has then prompted USD investors to vacate the dollar and move to riskier assets such as stock markets and has caused the dollar to drop in value.

Proposed U.S. Tax Cut Favors Canadian Economy
The Bank of Canada’s Overnight rate target uphold the 0.50 percent as the economic outlook remains the same. It is forecasted that the economy will recuperate to its maximum potential in the middle of 2018 driven by the infrastructure program of Federal government which could affect the economy.
The proposed tax cuts may be favorable for Canadian exports and business confidence but this may have an opposite effect for other states in America. Hence, this tax cut may not affect the economy of Canada. Even though the Canadian economy recovered solidly in the third quarter of 2016, it is forecasted since October to rise up to 2.1 percent until next year

Bundesbank posts two percent Inflation rate for Germany
Based on the report of Deutsche Bundesbank, inflation is predicted to surge for this month. Earlier in December, the consumer price index rose together with the high energy cost which began 5 years ago. The German inflation marks two percent according to the report of Bundesbank published on Monday.

On the previous month, the price level of consumer expenditure grew by 1.7% after three and a half years which resulted for high-priced petroleum products. This also made oil companies including the OPEC to imply for production cuts in order to improve the price of the basic material for oil.
On the other hand, analysts predicted for 1.8% inflation in 2021. The German economy continued to improved according to Bundesbank as the country’s industry remained “favorable”. The 2016 GDP expanded to 1.9% after five years and for this year, the bank expects for the same result.

Bank of Japan Done Adding Stimuli under Kuroda—Economists
Economists are stating that Bank of Japan is already done with adding economic stimulus to the Japanese economy under the term of BoJ Governor Haruhiko Kuroda. In addition, economists are also stating that there is a small chance of any adjustments made during the central bank’s policy meeting which is set to end this coming January 31. This is partly due to economic situations overseas becoming more complicated by the minute, especially with the newly-minted Trump administration as well as the hard Brexit process from the UK. The stirring of economic issues abroad has prompted the Bank of Japan to maintain its current policies and wait for these to unravel before finally making a move.
