Dollar hovered during Memorial Holiday.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Dollar index which gauges its value against a basket of six major currencies was traded flat, having a mixed pattern as investors contributed light trading during US Memorial holiday while new catalyst is required now. Despite, the bullish momentum is still continue ride on the US dollar as the appeal of safe haven dollar has risen up following the pro-democracy protests again erupted in Hong Kong. Recently, China has proposed to implement national security legislation in Hong Kong, where it will allow China to punish anyone found to have engaged in terrorism in Hong Kong. With this new law legislation, it could have negative effect toward the business activity and increase risk for companies and professionals in Hong Kong, dragging down the reputation of Hong Kong as an international financial centre. Therefore, US have also ramped up their criticism against China by revealing that US Senate are now formulating a new sanction plan, which will be imposed on China if national security laws legalised in Hong Kong. As of writing, dollar index notched down 0.03% to 99.75.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the commodities market, crude oil price appreciates by 1.89% to $33.90 per barrel as coronavirus lockdown eased, lifting up the appeal of this black commodity. However, the gains of crude oil capped as US-China tensions heightened, which possibly will disrupt the future demand of oil product. Besides, gold price inched down 0.08% to $1727.65 a troy ounce amid rising of market hopes toward economy\u2019s recovery.<\/p>\n
