Greenback rebounds following bullish speculation.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

US dollar rebounds sharply on yesterday over the backdrop of rising US Treasury yields. Majority of investors expects Federal Reserve to tighten monetary policy at a faster rate following resilient jobs market and consumer spending. Despite Omicron variant spreading rapidly in the US, most of US economic indicator suggests further economic recovery which may prompt Federal Reserve to increase their interest rate as soon as March 2022. On the other hand, various reports which suggests a lower risk from Omicron infection has further dialed up market sentiment towards the US dollar. Scientific research found that Omicron infection will only induce mild symptoms whereby most of the cases does not require extensive medical intervention. This may suggest a short-term risk from Omicron which in return, may not jeopardize overall economic recovery for the mid to long-term. As of writing, dollar index was up 0.02% to 96.17.<\/p>\n

For commodities, crude oil price was up 0.02% to $75.91 per barrel. Oil prices received substantial bullish support after Libya shutdown part of its crude oil facilities in order to conduct maintenance. On the other hand, gold price was down 0.04% to $1,803.00 a troy ounce due to stronger greenback.<\/p>\n
