Dollar slumped as risk-on sentiment.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The Dollar Index which traded against a basket of six major currency pairs dipped amid the risk-on sentiment in the global financial market following the US stock index reached an intraday record high yesterday. Investors remained optimism toward the better-than-expected third-quarter earnings from US companies. Despite some U.S. companies have been citing supply chain problems and higher costs earlier, they seem to be able to maintain profit margin by passing on costs to customers. Nonetheless, the expectation for the Federal Reserve to start tapering their aggressive monetary policy had limited the losses experienced by the US Dollar. Policymakers are poised to begin reducing their $120 billion in monthly asset purchases as soon as next month after what most see as substantial improvement in the labor market since the end of last year. As of writing, the Dollar Index depreciated by 0.14% to 93.60.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the commodities market, the crude oil price surged 0.04% to 84.25 per barrel as of writing. The oil market edged higher over the backdrop of bullish inventory data yesterday. According to Energy Information Administration (EIA), U.S. Crude Oil Inventories declined significantly from the previous reading of 6.088M to -0.431M, better than the market forecast at 1.857M. On the other hand, the gold price surged 0.03% to $1782.25 per troy ounces as of writing amid weakening US Dollar.<\/p>\n
