Aussie pressured <\/strong>as risk mood reversed.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

During late Asian session, the Australian dollar which traded against the greenback and other currency pairs have fell as market risk sentiment turns sour and diminishing the appeal for commodity-linked currency pair. On U.S front, upbeat jobs data and overall strength in treasury yields support demand for greenback. Non-Farm Payroll and Unemployment Rate both came in better than expectation. On top of that, passing of Biden\u2019s $1.9 trillion stimulus by U.S Senate also help provide extra boost for greenback, which in turn also weigh on the Aussie at the same time. On China front, China Vice-Chairman of National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) stated that economy recovery is not solid just yet and must cope with risk from overseas. The downbeat comments also weigh on the Aussie. At the time of writing, AUD\/USD slips 0.11% to 0.7692.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the commodities market, crude oil price soars 1.92% to $67.50 per barrel as of writing following reports of attack on Saudi oil facilities. According to reports from Aljazeera, Yemen’s Houthi forces fired drones and missiles at the heart of Saudi Arabia’s oil industry on Sunday, including a Saudi Aramco facility at Ras Tanura which could potentially disrupt oil supply and production. On the other hand, gold price rebounds 0.48% to $1708.11 a troy ounce at the time of writing following recent weakness in dollar.<\/p>\n
