Dollar wobbles following the release of downbeat ADP data.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The dollar index which gauges its value against a basket of six major currencies failed to extend its rally yesterday, hovering near 91.00 amid a disappointing job data was released yesterday. According to the ADP, US NonFarm Employment Change data came in at 117K, missing the economist forecast at 177K, indicating that the nation\u2019s labour market remain weak and vulnerable. Despite the US virus confirmed cases dropped significantly and the local government has lifted the containment measures, US labour market should have started to recover from the fallout of Covid-19 by appearing with more job opportunities, but it differs from the fact. However, on the bright side, there is still some growth could be noticed in the job data where it mainly came from the services sector. On the other side, investors are now shifting their attention toward the latest development of stimulus plan. According to the latest news, US Senate and President Biden have struck a deal where they agreed to phase out direct check payment more quickly in the $1.9 trillion stimulus plan. Therefore, it is seemingly that the latest proposal will be sent to House of Senate for voting in anytime soon. During Asian trading session, dollar index ticked up 0.21% to 91.00.<\/p>\n

Besides, gold price dropped 0.04% to $1710.35 per troy ounce amid dollar\u2019s strengthened.<\/p>\n
