According to Australian Bureau of Statistics, Australia\u2019s CPI have rose 0.9% in the fourth quarter, surpassed market expectation of a 0.7% rise. At the same time, National Australia Bank\u2019s Business Conditions data also came in higher at 14 against market forecast of 13. Following the positive data, Aussie dollar have managed to convince buyers for demand. On top of that, increasing risk sentiment in the market that is boosted by coronavirus vaccine updates and optimistic outlook from IMF could further boost the demand for the Aussie. In the U.S Biden administration said Tuesday that it would purchase 100 million doses each of the vaccines made by Pfizer Inc and Moderna Inc, increasing the overall total doses to 600 million while International Monetary Fund (IMF) revised the 2021 global economic growth forecast higher to 5.5% versus 5.2%.

Missile attacks and drone strikes claimed by Houthi forces have targeted civilian airports and oil infrastructure in Saudi Arabia, occasionally reaching Riyadh. On the other hand, gold price slips 0.20% to $1847.10 a troy ounce as of writing following dollar strength while market waits for signals from Fed.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>Today\u2019s Holiday Market Close<\/u><\/p>\n<p><strong>Time\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Market\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Event <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>N\/A<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>Today\u2019s Highlight Events<\/u><\/p>\n<p><strong>Time\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Market\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Event<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>03:00\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 USD\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 FOMC Statement<\/p>\n<p>(28<sup>th<\/sup>)<\/p>\n<p>03:00\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 USD\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 FOMC Press Conference<\/p>\n<p>(28<sup>th<\/sup>)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>Today\u2019s Highlight Economic Data<\/u><\/p>\n<table width=\"105%\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"11%\"><strong>Time<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"53%\"><strong>Nation &amp; Data<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\"><strong>Previous<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\"><strong>Forecast<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"10%\"><strong>Actual<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"11%\">21:30<\/td>\n<td width=\"53%\">USD \u2013 Core Durable Goods Orders (MoM)(Dec)<\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\">0.4%<\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\">0.5%<\/td>\n<td width=\"10%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"11%\">23:30<\/td>\n<td width=\"53%\">USD \u2013 Crude Oil Inventories<\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\">4.351M<\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\">0.430M<\/td>\n<td width=\"10%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"11%\">03:00<br \/>\n(28<sup>th<\/sup>)<\/td>\n<td width=\"53%\">USD \u2013 Fed Interest Rate Decision<\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\">0.25%<\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\">0.25%<\/td>\n<td width=\"10%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Technical Analysis<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-154232\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/01\/270121-DOLLAR_INDX-Noon.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>DOLLAR_INDX, H4: <\/strong>Dollar index was lower following prior retracement from the resistance level at 90.45.
