  • New Home Sales in the US unexpectedly increased in November.
  • US Dollar Index stays in daily range above 104.00.

Sales of new single‐family houses rose by 5.8% in November to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 640,000, the data published jointly by the US Census Bureau and the Department of Housing and Urban Development showed on Friday.
