EU Market View
Asian equity markets were subdued in holiday-thinned trade and following a mixed lead from Wall Street. Britain's coronavirus-ravaged economy shrank 9.9% in 2020, the biggest annual fall in output since modern records began but avoided heading back towards recession in the final quarter of the year, official figures showed on Friday.

The dollar remained on the back foot on Friday in Asia, pinned near two-week lows, after the release of weaker-than-expected weekly U.S. jobless claims data the previous day.
Looking ahead, highlights from macroeconomic calendar include UK GDP, Uni. of Michigan, Fed's Williams speech.
