In the US session Existing Home Sales figures were released. Sales of previously-owned homes dipped in December, as increasingly tight inventory and higher prices began to stifle the housing market. Existing-home sales ran at a seasonally-adjusted annual pace of 5.49 million, the National Association of Realtors said Tuesday. That was down 2.8% from an upwardly-revised November, which marked a nine-year high, but only 0.7% higher than a year ago. Economists surveyed by MarketWatch had forecast a rate of 5.51 million.
Tomorrow, from Eurozone, German Business Climate figures will be published. Analysts predict increase to 11.3. There will be no major data releases in the US part of the session.
