🤔 Why it matters:
This week sets the tone for 2026 macro expectations. Weak manufacturing PMIs contrast with still-resilient services activity, while Friday’s NFP and wage data remain the ultimate test for Fed policy expectations. Eurozone CPI stability helps anchor ECB outlooks early in the year.

👀 Friday’s U.S. jobs report is the key volatility trigger, watch wages and unemployment together.
