The CBOE is set to kick off trading of Bitcoin futures on December 10, with the CME entering the fray a week later. Tim gives his take on that futures contract, while also looking ahead to tonight's release of November US non-farm payrolls and the anticipated Fed rate hike next week. Tim also comments on the latest stop-gap budget measure by the US Congress, and any potential overhang on the Trump tax agenda.
