Equity indices in the Asia-Pacific region had a mixed showing to end the week. Lots of understandable attention on the Omicron variant. South Korea is reportedly capping gatherings in the greater Seoul area to six people. Services PMI readings for many countries in the region were generally better than expected. The notable exception was China's Caixin Services PMI, which was a bit weaker than expected at 52.1. In geopolitical news, the US and EU delivered a joint statement, stating concerns they have about China's actions in the Taiwan Strait and South China Sea. Chinese company Didi will be delisting from the NYSE and the SEC is reportedly getting ready to drive a delisting of Chinese companies in the U.S. that won't disclose their ownership structure or sufficient evidence they have audited.

Major European indices are sporting modest gains, drafting off Wall Street's positive showing on Thursday, but at the same time showing some reserve ahead of the response in the U.S. to the November Employment Situation report and as concerns about the Omicron variant fester. Germany and France have now reported Omicron cases, and Germany has announced a nationwide lockdown for unvaccinated individuals. Incoming Chancellor Scholz is said to be eyeing Joachim Nagel to replace Weidmann as head of the Bundesbank after he departs at the end of the year. ECB President Lagarde thinks it is unlikely that the ECB will raise rates in 2022 and other officials continue to espouse the view that inflation pressures will be transitory. November Services PMI data across the region was mixed, but still indicative of expanding activity.
