On coronavirus front, Australia\u2019s Covid-19 outbreak continue to expands where states such as NSW, Melbourne and Victoria record new cases. Record high infections in New South Wales and Melbourne have prompt policymakers to extend lockdowns for another seven days. Despite Australia has handled the pandemic much better than other developed countries, the fast-spreading Delta variant continue to throw Australia\u2019s plans to reopening economies. Economist expected the lockdown in two largest cities may cause the nation into a second potential recession in many years. On the U.S front, US Senators finally passed a $1.2 trillion stimulus that might get fewer hurdles in the House before reaching President Joe Biden for the sign. The move help propelled demand for greenback which further diminished the appeal for the Aussie. At the time of writing, AUD\/USD fell 0.12% to 0.7339.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the commodities market, crude oil price rebounds 0.19% to $68.05 per barrel as of writing following brighter demand outlook. According to reports, economist expects that the global consumption will continue its upward trajectory and tighten the market until the end of 2021. On data front, API data showed that U.S crude supply have fell by 816,00 barrels, although it is much slightly lesser than market expectation of a draw about 1.050 million barrels. On the other hand, gold price remains weak and fell 0.03% to $1734.31 a troy ounce at the time of writing amid strengthening dollar.<\/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>N\/A<\/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%\">20:30<\/td>\n<td width=\"53%\">USD &#8211; Core CPI (MoM) (Jul)<\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\">0.9%<\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\">0.4%<\/td>\n<td width=\"10%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"11%\">22:30<\/td>\n<td width=\"53%\">CrudeOIL &#8211; Crude Oil Inventories<\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\">3.626M<\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\">-3.102M<\/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-191127\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/08\/110821-DOLLAR_INDX-Noon.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/08\/110821-DOLLAR_INDX-Noon.jpg 700w, http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/08\/110821-DOLLAR_INDX-Noon-480x343.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 700px, 100vw\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>DOLLAR_INDX, H4: <\/strong>Dollar index was traded higher while currently testing the resistance level 93.10.
