Here is all what you need to know before going into trade for 15-Jan-2021.
International Market:
- In US, Treasury yields rose on Thursday after dovish comments from Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell boosted expectations for a jump in inflation, and before President-elect Joe Biden was to announce details of a new stimulus package
