Major US stock indexes fell moderately amid falling shares of Apple (AAPL) after the Finnish Nokia said it has filed a series of lawsuits against the iPhone maker for patent infringement.

In addition, as it became known, the US economy grew faster than previously estimated in the third quarter, noting its best performance in two years, on the back of strong consumer spending and a jump in soybean exports. Gross domestic product grew by 3.5% instead of the previously reported 3.2%, the Commerce Ministry said in its third evaluation. The growth was the strongest since the third quarter of 2014 after increasing by 1.4% in the second quarter.

At the same time, the number of Americans who applied for unemployment benefits rose to a six-month high last week, but remain below the level that is associated with a strong labor market. unemployment initial claims for benefits rose by 21,000 and reached a seasonally adjusted 275,000 for the week ending 17 December. This is the highest rate since June. The data for the previous week were not revised.

It should also be noted that new orders for US-made core capital goods rose more than expected in November, amid strong demand for machinery and primary metals, suggesting that the effect on the production of some of the negative factors associated with the oil, began to fade. Non-defense capital goods orders excluding aircraft, closely watched gauge of business spending plans, rose 0.9% after growth of 0.2% in October.

Also, the Commerce Department reported that consumer spending, which accounts for over two-thirds of US economic activity, rose 0.2% after increasing 0.4% in October (revised from + 0.3%). Economists had expected an increase of 0.3%.

DOW index components closed mostly in the red (17 of 30). Outsider were shares of Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. (WMT, -2.40%). Most remaining shares rose Verizon Communications Inc. (VZ, + 1.29%).

Most of the S & P sectors registered a decline. the services sector fell the most (-1.1%). The leader turned conglomerates sector (+ 1.8%).

The first half of today's trading shows that in the market has already arrived noticeably Christmas atmosphere. The changes are small and dominated by consolidation. After an initial drop the demand side in the second hour of trading was trying to take the initiative, but this was not successful and in the noon phase of trading the WIG20 index went at session minima.

There is no supply-side signals from Euroland and for any more active trading we will have to wait the entry to the game of American capital.

At the halfway point of today's session the WIG20 index was at the level of 1,922 points (-0.30%).

This morning, the New York futures for Brent rose by 0.28% to $ 54.61 and WTI rose 0.17% to $ 52.58 per barrel. Thus, the black gold is gaining weakening of the dollar. Additional support is provided by optimism over the fact that OPEC will stick to previously scheduled plan to reduce oil production.

The assessment confirmed the need to extend the asset purchase programme beyond March 2017 to preserve the very substantial amount of monetary support that is necessary to secure a sustained convergence of inflation rates towards levels below, but close to, 2% over the medium term.

Global activity has improved in the second half of the year and is expected to continue strengthening, although remaining below its pre-crisis pace. Continued accommodative policies and improving labour markets have supported activity in the United States, but uncertainty about the US and global outlook has increased since the US election. In Japan the pace of expansion is expected to remain moderate, while the medium-term growth prospects of the United Kingdom are likely to be restrained by heightened uncertainty related to the country's future relations with the EU.

Euro area sovereign yields have risen recently and the EONIA forward curve has steepened.

The futures market began the day from a discount of 0.3 percent, thus extending the weakness seen in the final phase of yesterday's session. Red in the morning is also on other European parquets, where a lesser extent, but also falling futures for the major indices Euroland.

The cash market started neutrally and with modest turnover. We may see a light supply for banks and commodity companies (decline in commodity prices). However, the market is not falling harder and subsidence appears, at least for the time being, controlled.

After fifteen minutes of trading WIG20 index was at 1,922 points (-0.30%).

"The ECB announced a coming reduction in its monthly asset purchases, but tried not say it was "tapering" by combining two announcements in one. European monetary policymakers retained their existing €80 bn per month in assets purchases that was due to end after March, but tacked on a further €60 bn in monthly buying through the end of December 2017, or longer if necessary.

The reduction in the pace of purchases is more of a reflection of the strains in some bond markets than it is of the ECB's view that the economy requires less stimulus. President Draghi highlighted low core inflation, even though the central bank's forecast shows headline inflation reaching target in 2019. The central bank appeared keen on taking the spotlight off of headline which is being buoyed by higher energy prices. The central bank is likely also trying to push back against the post-Trump move in bond markets, which has seen both interest rates and inflation expectations rebound sharply (Chart 3).

Ongoing balance sheet expansion, coupled with political risks in a number of Eurozone countries should keep the euro contained in the first quarter of next year.

Thereafter, a brighter outlook for both the economy and political risks should begin to see the currency gain ground against a US dollar that's best days are behind it. Look for a disappointing result for the populist Front National party in France's upcoming elections to be a turning point for political risk in the region".

Wednesday brought declines in major indices on the New York stock exchanges. Dow Jones was not able to overcome the barrier of 20 000 points, however in the first part of the session was close to that goal. The dollar weakened against the euro and the yen, and oil become cheaper after the publication of data on stocks of fuel.

The Dow Jones Industrial dropped at the closing of 0.16 percent, the S&P500 lost 0.25 per cent, while the Nasdaq Comp. went down by 0.23 percent. The market feels already pre-Christmas mood and investor activity decreases.

On the market there is a noticeable pressure of the supply side on the main raw materials: oil and copper and the Asian parquets are dominates by the red color. Add to this slight discount of contracts in the United States. Thus, the mood in the morning can mean a return to an earlier consolidation.

The macro calendar will show today data on GDP growth in the US in the third quarter and information about the income and expenditure of Americans and orders for durable goods. It will not be data that could significantly change the balance of power in today's session.

According to the latest monthly report published by the Ministry of Finance of Germany, in the last quarter of this year, GDP will show a positive trend despite the weak performance of the individual indicators. In particular, the Ministry of Finance is worried about weak growth in exports and increases risk of foreign trade. However, employment recovery and the normal indicators of inflation are good signs. Also in the fourth quarter, an improvement in business sentiment and the growth of industrial orders is expected.

New Zealand's seasonally adjusted current account deficit increased to $1.9 billion in the September 2016 quarter, Statistics New Zealand said today. This is a small increase from the June quarter deficit of $1.8 billion and was funded by the banking sector.

Within the current account, New Zealand's export goods were worth $686 million less than import goods in the September 2016 quarter. The goods trade shortfall in the latest quarter was up $190 million from the June 2016 quarter, after accounting for usual seasonal patterns.

"New Zealand spent more on imports of goods, and earned less from exports of goods this quarter," international statistics senior manager Jason Attewell said.

Gross domestic product rose 1.1 percent in the September 2016 quarter, following an increase of 0.7 percent (revised) in the June 2016 quarter, Statistics New Zealand said today.

"This quarter's rise points to broad-based growth," national accounts senior manager Gary Dunnet said. "Thirteen of the 16 industries were up, with the main weakness coming from agriculture."

Household spending continued its strong growth, increasing 1.6 percent this quarter, following a 2.0 percent increase in the June quarter.

"We've seen Kiwis spend more on domestic travel, accommodation, eating out, and recreation," Mr Dunnet said.

Exports edged back from last quarter's increase. While growth fell over the September quarter, export volumes remain high. Imports rose in the September quarter, reflecting large purchases of aircraft.

Service industries continued to grow, increasing 1.1 percent in the September quarter. The main drivers were business services; transport, postal and warehousing; and arts, recreation, and other services.

As reported by the Federal Statistical Office (Destatis), the index of import prices increased by 0.3% in November 2016 compared with the corresponding month of the preceding year. This was the first increase of a yearly rate of change since November 2012 (+1.0%). In October and in September 2016 the annual rates of change were -0.6% and -1.8%, respectively. From October to November 2016 the index rose by 0.7%.

The index of import prices, excluding crude oil and mineral oil products, increased by 0.4% compared with the level of a year earlier.

The index of export prices increased by 0.3% in November 2016 compared with the corresponding month of the preceding year. In October and in September 2016 the annual rates of change were -0.1% and -0.6%, respectively. From October to November 2016 the export price index rose by 0.5%.

European stocks slipped Wednesday, with pressure on Spanish and other European bank shares pulling the market away from its highest level of the year. BMPS sank as much as 19% and were halted a few times as the bank said its liquidity could be wiped out in four months, compared with its previous projection of 11 months.

U.S. stocks closed modestly lower Wednesday, with the Dow industrials and Nasdaq Composite retreating from all-time highs set a day earlier. The market traded in a relatively tight range amid thinning volumes ahead of the December holidays. Wall Street has been in rally mode since the U.S. presidential election on Nov 8, with investors wagering that the pro-business policies of President-elect Donald Trump will spur faster economic growth.

Asian shares were a mixed bag early Thursday, as market volumes began to thin out in the run-up to the Christmas holidays, while trading was range-bound with many investors sitting on the sidelines. Many major markets in Asia will close on Monday (and a few on Tuesday as well) to observe Christmas, though Japan and China will remain open.
