View: Global Market Liquidity Expected to Rebound Next Week
On January 2nd, Danske Bank FX and Rates Strategist Jens Naervig Pedersen said in a report that global market liquidity is expected to stay thin this week but could rebound next week.
“As more economic data hits the wire, market liquidity should improve next week,” the strategist noted.
Key releases next week include critical U.S. labor market data—headlined by the December Non-Farm Payrolls report due January 9th—and ISM surveys. During the year-end period, many market participants have been on holiday or closing out positions, resulting in generally lower liquidity.

Eugene: Shitcoin is Pointing the Way Forward for the Market
On January 2, trader Eugene Ng Ah Sio shared on his personal channel that altcoins are shaping the market’s future trajectory.
As previously reported, Eugene has taken long positions in Bitcoin and select small-cap altcoins. Right now, nearly everyone is on holiday—even “whales” are sitting on the sidelines and not biting. Bitcoin has failed to break below $84k, while overall market trading volume has dried up and sellers are largely tapped out.
A handful of large buyers entering the market would easily overwhelm the thin order book.
“Going long below $90k carries strong upside potential with a clear stop-loss level. I’d rather take a shot here now than hesitate at $95k or even $100k. Plus, historically, January tends to be a high-volatility month. I expect volatility to pick back up in some capacity once December wraps up.”
