According to U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Core Consumer Price Index (CPI) for last month notched down from the previous reading of 0.6% to 0.5%, roughly in line with market expectation. Though, market participants were bracing for much higher inflation due to the supply disruption and aggressive expansionary monetary policy when the Covid-19 pandemic hobbled the world economy almost single-handedly in 2019. Nonetheless, the overall trend for the US Dollar remained flat as traders are now gear up for the updates from the Federal Reserve\u2019s meeting this week to receive further trading signal. The Fed will hold its final meeting of the year on 15-16<sup>th<\/sup> December while the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) are expected to discuss accelerating the taper of the bond buying program to combat the high inflation risk. As of writing, the Dollar Index depreciated by 0.23% to 96.05.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the commodities market, the crude oil price surged 1.89% to $72.25 per barrel as of writing. The oil market edged higher amid easing concerns over the Omicron variant. The latest data from medical experts indicated the symptom for the Omicron variant remained mile and can be mitigated with booster shots of the vaccine. On the other hand, the gold price surged 0.41% to $1782.75 per troy ounces as of writing amid weakening US Dollar.<\/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>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>Today\u2019s Highlight Economic Data<\/u><\/p>\n<p>N\/A<\/p>\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-215808\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/131221-DOLLAR_INDX.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/131221-DOLLAR_INDX.jpg 700w, http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/131221-DOLLAR_INDX-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 lower following prior retracement from the resistance level at 96.35.
