On the global stage, attention remained on the 56th Annual World Economic Forum meeting in Davos, Switzerland, where policymakers, central bankers, and global business leaders gathered. Beyond that, the broader macro environment remained quiet, leaving futures markets to trade primarily on technical flow and liquidity conditions.
