On U.S stimulus front, Biden&#8217;s US$1.9 trillion Covid-19 relief package is expected to pass through Congress before March 15 even without Republican support. The package is expected to help the U.S economy to recover in near term, however, there are worries that huge fiscal spending, alongside the continuous ultra-easy Federal Reserve monetary policy, could see the dollar decline in the long term. Investors concern that the large amount of stimulus could widen further the problem of U.S current account deficit, thus weighing heavily on the greenback. At the time of writing, dollar index fell 0.20% to 90.68.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the commodities market, crude oil price continues to extend gains and soars 0.55% to $58.38 per barrel as of writing over ongoing supply cuts and hopes of fuel demand recovery. Implementation of additional supply cuts from Saudi Arabia in February are helping to reduce supply and support the commodity price. Also boosting investor hopes are the continuous global rollout of COVID-19 vaccines and data suggesting that the virus has peaked in countries such as the U.S. On the other hand, gold price jumps 0.56% to $1840.45 a troy ounce at the time of writing following dollar weakness.<\/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>20:00\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 CrudeOil\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 EIA Short-Term Energy Outlook<\/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%\">23:00<\/td>\n<td width=\"53%\">USD \u2013 JOLTs Job Openings (Dec)<\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\">6.527M<\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\">6.500M<\/td>\n<td width=\"10%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><strong><u><br \/>\n<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Technical Analysis<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-155434\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/02\/090221-DOLLAR_INDX-Noon.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>DOLLAR_INDX, H4: <\/strong>Dollar index was traded lower following prior breakout below the previous support level at 90.85.
