The dollar index which gauges its value against a basket of six major currencies standstill while hovering near the recent high level as a series of downbeat data tumbled the dollar market sentiment. Yesterday, US ADP has reported the private sector employment data for the month of April at a softer-than-expected reading, where the actual reading and economist forecast were 742K and 800k respectively. Despite, the job data still posting the largest gains since September of 2020, indicating that the labor market managed to keep in track with the upward trend of acceleration and growth. However, the US ISM Services PMI posted a downbeat index at 62.7, lower than the market expectation at 64.3 and previous reading at 63.7. After a night of negative data released, dollar gains was limited while market participants are still awaiting for the upcoming crucial data such as Nonfarm Payroll in order to scrutinize the further direction of dollar index. During Asian early trading session, the dollar index dropped 0.03% to 91.25.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the commodities market, crude oil price dropped by 0.20% to $65.10 per barrel despite a large draw in US oil inventories as the market participants are still concern over the resurgence of virus where it likely will continue to weigh on the demand of oil. Besides, the gold prices rose by 0.01% to $1786.75 a troy ounce amid weakening of dollar index.<\/p>\n
