ADP slumps as Omicron spreads.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Greenback extended its retracement from higher levels following the release of private sector employment data. Last month, ADP Nonfarm Employment Change decreased by -301,000, significantly lower than forecast of 207,000. Job losses were noticeable across all sector and most prominent in the services sector. The report highlighted the impact of Omicron variant which begins to spread rapidly during late of December 2021. However, economists expect negative impact from Omicron to persist in the short-term and employment market may rebound in the mid-term. Likewise, market reaction towards the data were limited due as Federal Reserve is expected to raise interest rates regardless in order to curb rising inflation in the US. As of writing, the dollar index was down by 0.02% to 95.93.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

For the commodities market, crude oil price was down by 0.59% to $87.80 per barrel after Saudi Arabia and Kuwait announce plans to raise oil output in the Neutral Zone. On the other hand, gold price was up by 0.02% to $1,807.10 a troy ounce due to weaker greenback.<\/p>\n
