The Chai Tattle - 17th December 2025

A brief summary of the economic market at end of day looking at indicators and metrics not found elsewhere.

The equities market developed a negative momentum as 53% of the equities lost value with 119 equities having a delta larger than -1%, on the flip side 93 equities gained more than 1% and the result was starker when comparing lower deltas. This was not wholly reflected on the indices as they closed almost at par from yesterday with some volatility throughout the day.

Liquidity dropped even further, by around 200 basis points showcasing that investors are still tetchy about the equities market.

While liquidity is weak another metric, free float depth has been high for most sectors, with only communication services and consumer discretionary lower than 2%, with investors putting money into developed stocks in each sector.
