The deviation of EU workers due to Brexit restrictions in the UK has caused fuel crisis as the result of truck driver shortage. According to the news, limited deliveries of gasoline and diesel have led to a heavy panic buy, which resulted in closure of numerous petrol stations in the region. Moreover, the recent energy crisis that hit both Europe and China have resulted in electricity shortage in various cities. The production halts in factories could threaten global economic growth as well as supply chain. These have fueled up risk off sentiment hence reiterated the appeal of US dollar as safe haven. Meanwhile, the pair of GBP\/USD received additional bearish momentum following prospects for an early monetary policy tightening by the Fed. The rallying US Treasury bond yields has resulted in the pullback of equity market as well as other major currencies. As of writing, the pair of GBP\/USD slumped 0.02% to 1.3534.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the commodities market, the crude oil price slumped 0.13% to $74.37 per barrel as of writing amid bearish oil inventory data. According to the American Petroleum Institute, the US API Weekly Crude Oil Stock data came in at the reading of 4.127M, worse than the forecasted reading of -2.333M. On the other hand, the gold price was down 0.06% to $1734.38 per troy ounces amid strengthening US 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>23:45\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 GBP\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0BoE Gov Bailey Speaks<\/p>\n<p>23:45\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 USD\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Fed Chair Powell Speaks<\/p>\n<p>23:45\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 EUR\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0ECB President Lagarde Speaks<\/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%\">22:00<\/td>\n<td width=\"53%\">USD &#8211; Pending Home Sales (MoM) (Aug)<\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\">-1.80%<\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\">1.30%<\/td>\n<td width=\"10%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"11%\">22:30<\/td>\n<td width=\"53%\">CrudeOIL -Crude Oil Inventories<\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\">-3.481M<\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<td width=\"10%\">&nbsp;<\/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-201029\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/09\/290921-DOLLAR_INDX-Noon.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/09\/290921-DOLLAR_INDX-Noon.jpg 700w, http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/09\/290921-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 93.70.
