Good morning and Happy New Year,
            
Asian Markets remain upbeat with the JPN225 pushing towards the December 2016 high of 19651. A break out could see the index continue to push towards the 20k figure amid JPY weakness and the knock on effect that exports increase due to lower costs to buyers, seeing a positive affect on the balance sheet of the main movers. The Nikkei Manufacturing PMI for December was out at 52.4 from 51.9 previously. USDJPY trading at 117.97at time of writing, with the JPN225 trading at 19609 at time of writing.
