Bitcoin has surged to a new record high, buoyed by news of Trump’s appointment, while U.S. jobless claims climbed to a one-month high during Thanksgiving week. In corporate news, Disney announced an increase in dividends, yet its stock price declined. Conversely, Brown-Forman, the maker of Jack Daniels, saw its shares soar on a stronger-than-expected forecast. However, Synopsys faced a downturn as its sales outlook fell short of estimates. Across the Atlantic, European stocks reached a one-month high, with Germany's DAX index setting another record. Meanwhile, oil prices held steady as investors weighed the impact of a delayed OPEC output hike. Looking ahead, the ASX200 is expected to dip as markets await potential stimulus measures from China.
