•The Eurozone's preliminary HCOB Mfg PMI held firm at 44.2, contrary to market expectations of a 44.6 reading. Eurozone mfg  performance remained stable but below anticipated levels.

• Business activity   in Germany, Europe's largest economy, contracted in December, increasing the likelihood of a recession at the end of the year.
