Euro surged amid positive data.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The pair of EUR\/USD surged on yesterday over the backdrop of upbeat economic data from the Germany region. According to Statistisches Bundesamt Deutschland, Germany Gross Domestic Product (GDP) for last quarter had notched up significantly from the previous reading of -1.8% to 1.6%, exceeding the market forecast at 1.5%. As such crucial data had fared better than market expectation, which dialed up the market optimism toward the economic progression in the European region while spurring hopes for European Central Bank to taper its monetary policy earlier-than-expected. On the Covid-19 front, Chancellor Angela Merkel said on Monday that Germany has decided to stop using the Covid-19 infections rate as its yardstick for deciding if restrictions should be in force to combat the spread of the virus. Since the number of people who are fully vaccinated continue to rise in Germany, the government will instead monitor hospitalization as a key indicator for the determination of the \u201clock-down\u201d policy. Investors remained positive that high vaccination level in the European region would limit the probability for the authorities to implement lock-down measures. As of writing, EUR\/USD slumped 0.08% to 1.1745.<\/p>\n

In the commodities market, the crude oil price slumped 0.37% to 67.55 per barrel as of writing. The oil market received some bearish momentum in early trading session following bearish inventory data was released. According to American Petroleum Institute, U.S. API Weekly Crude Oil Stock came in at -1.622M, missing the market forecast at -2.367M. On the other hand, the gold price depreciated by 0.40% to $1795.95 per troy ounces as of writing amid market participants speculated the Fed might provide hawkish tone during the Jackson Hole meeting in this Friday.<\/p>\n
