Such remarks came ahead of speech given by European Central Bank President Mario Draghi and Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen at the two-day symposium. Otherwise, Draghi is expected to remained hushed on future monetary policy stance in order to avert recent rally on the Euro amid ECB\u2019s concern over recent sharp rise and its impact on their economy. Also weighing on the greenback was a surge in euro due to optimistic manufacturing and services data while coupled with softer-than-expected US New Home Sales.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the commodities market, crude oil price eased 0.08% to $48.37 while remained supported by a larger-than-expected draw in US crude stockpiles.
