Aussie rose following upbeat CPI data.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The Aussie dollar which traded against the greenback and other currency pairs have regain some support and appreciated after the positive release of CPI. According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, the consumer price index based on quarterly basis have improved to -1.9%, slightly better than market expectation with the reading of -2%. Meanwhile, the annualized figure also came it at -0.3% which is also beating market expectation of -0.4%. At the same time, the momentum was also supported by the weakness in greenback as US dollar fails to regain buyer\u2019s confidence. As of now, trader continue to doubt the U.S policymakers will be able to sign the phase 4 coronavirus stimulus package. The scepticism was confirmed further by U.S House Speaker Nancy Pelosi which she stated that both Republicans and opposition Democrats are still far apart in reaching any deal. At the time of writing, AUD\/USD rose 0.15% to 0.7168 while dollar index slips 0.03% to 93.58.<\/p>\n

In the commodities market, crude oil price fell 0.04$ to $40.98 per barrel as of writing amid demand concerns continue to weigh. Earlier on, positive inventory data from the API have help the commodity to regain some support. However, the momentum was short-lived as market remains concerned over demand outlook due to raging COVID-19 pandemic, thus limiting the upside of the commodity. On the other hand, gold price jumps 0.11% to $1953.35 a troy ounce at the time of writing following ongoing weakness in the greenback.<\/p>\n
