The ASX 200 closed a reasonable 1% up, at 8,200, as the week before Christmas brings what could really, actually, finally be a Santa Rally Down Under.

Paladin Energy (ASX:PDN) has completed the acquisition of Fission Uranium Corp six months after the $1.5 billion merger deal originally began, with the all-scrip deal netting final clearance just before the Christmas break.

The ASX 200 is expected to open -0.09% lower this morning after a two-break from trading through the year's Christmas celebrations and Boxing Day.
