today: Volatility is set to grip for a fifth straight session on Friday as investors assess newsflow around Covid-19 cases in China, US jobs data, and Ukraine-Russia war.

A better-than-expected reading of ADP private payrolls report in the US showed that employers added 235,000 jobs in December — showing a strong labor market despite the US Fed's attempt to tame inflation and suggesting there is more room for higher rates.

Meanwhile, Russian President Vladimir Putin has ordered his defence minister to impose a 36-hour ceasefire on the Ukrainian frontline, beginning on Friday. This will coincide with the Russian Orthodox Christmas.

Against these developments, the Nikkei 225 and the Topix in Japan pared their earlier losses to trade marginally higher. South Korea's Kospi gained 0.37 per cent, and Australia's S&P/ASX 200 rose 0.34 per cent.

Overnight, Wall Street closed lower yet again with the S&P 500 down 1.16 per cent; Dow Jones 1 per cent; and Nasdaq Composite 1.47 per cent.

At 7:05 AM, SGX Nifty, too, was down about 31 points at 18,036.
