In the testimony, Fed Chair Jerome Powell emphasized that they will control rising price of goods which surpasses their targeted rate of 2%. Likewise, Powell revealed that monetary policy tightening will include raising their interest rates as well reducing assets on hold in hopes to control overall economy from derailing due to high inflationary pressure. While monetary policy tightening will have negative impact upon economic momentum, Powell reassures that they will balance it out in between economic growth and inflation. His remarks have eased market speculation that Fed will focus solely on inflation in setting their monetary policy, triggering a selloff in both US dollar and US Treasury. As of writing, dollar index was down by 0.01% to 95.54 during Asian trading session.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the commodities market, crude oil price was up by 0.03% to $81.26 per barrel.
