According to US Commerce Department, Durable Goods Orders for the month of December rose by 2.4%, significantly higher than forecast of 0.4%. However, its Core Durable Goods Orders which excludes transportation items fell by -0.1%, missing forecast of 0.2% rise.

Nonetheless, Conference Board reported that its Consumer Confidence Index rose to 131.6, significantly higher than forecast for a reading of 128.0. As consumer confidence is the leading indicator of spending, a rise on the index may provide a more bullish take for retail sales in the future. For the time being, US dollar remains firm, hovering near 1 month high prior to the announcement of monetary policy from Federal Reserve\u2019s meeting tomorrow morning. As of writing, the dollar index ticked up 0.01% to 97.71.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the commodities market, crude oil price rose 0.01% to $53.92 per barrel.
