PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS DECLARED RECEIVING ASSURANCES FROM `OTHER SIDE` SOURCES THAT THE TEHRAN GOVERNMENT WOULD STOP KILLING PROTESTERS, AND THAT THEREFORE HE MIGHT POSTPONE MILITARY ACTION AGAINST IRAN FOR NOW. REGARDING FED CHAIRMAN JEROME POWELL, TRUMP SAID HE DID NOT PLAN TO REMOVE HIM DESPITE THE CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION AGAINST HIM, BUT THAT IT WAS `TOO EARLY` FOR A FINAL DECISION. ASIAN STOCK MARKETS ARE GIVING A MIXED PERFORMANCE THIS MORNING. IN FUTURES MARKETS, U.S. FUTURES ARE FLAT, WHILE GERMAN DAX FUTURES ARE OBSERVING LIMITED POSITIVE PRICING. ON THE MACROECONOMIC DATA AGENDA TODAY, THE CENTRAL GOVERNMENT BUDGET STATISTICS FOR DECEMBER AND WEEKLY MONETARY AND BANKING STATISTICS STAND OUT DOMESTICALLY. WE EXPECT THE UPTREND IN THE BUDGET DEFICIT TO CONTINUE IN THE LAST MONTH OF 2025 DUE TO YEAR-END CLOSINGS AND PAYMENT/OFFSETTING TRANSACTIONS. ALSO TODAY, THE HEARING FOR THE CASE AGAINST EKREM IMAMOGLU, WHO WAS REMOVED FROM HIS POSITION AS MAYOR OF ISTANBUL METROPOLITAN MUNICIPALITY ON CORRUPTION CHARGES, REGARDING THE REVOCATION OF HIS UNIVERSITY DEGREE WILL BE HELD. GLOBALLY, THE DATA FLOW IS HEAVY TODAY, WITH KEY FIGURES INCLUDING GERMAN GDP, EUROZONE INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTION, US WEEKLY JOBLESS CLAIMS, THE NEW YORK FED MANUFACTURING INDEX, AND THE PHILADELPHIA FED MANUFACTURING INDEX. LOCALLY, WE EXPECT THE BENCHMARK INDEX TO START THE DAY NEGATIVELY, FOLLOWED BY A VOLATILE TREND. SUPPORT: 12,250 - 12,150 RESISTANCE: 12,450 - 12,550.
