Aussie slips on weak data, virus woes.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

During late Asian session, the Australian dollar which traded against the dollar and other currency pairs have failed to extend its gains and retreat as surging cases in China coupled with weak data exert some selling pressure for the currency. On data front, Australia\u2019s Job Vacancies for three months to November dropped below 59.4% prior to 23.4%. The data reflects a weakness in jobs number that challenges policymakers and could prompt Aussie government to potential extend relief measures. On coronavirus front, China\u2019s virus numbers jumped to the highest in five months with 115 new confirmed cases on the mainland (55 the previous day) including 107 local infections. Besides that, rising global coronavirus also challenge risk sentiment. At the time of writing, AUD\/USD slips 0.07% to 0.7765.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the commodities market, crude oil price continues to extend its gains and jumped 1.05% to $53.77 per barrel as of writing following U.S inventory drop. According to API, crude inventories in the U.S. dropped by 5.8 million barrels last week to around 484.5 million barrels. On the other hand, gold price rebounds 0.28% to $1859.81 a troy ounce at the time of writing amid weakening dollar.<\/p>\n
