US Dollar retreated following US GDP growth revised lower.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The Dollar Index which traded against a basket of six major currencies extend its losses over the backdrop of downbeat economic data yesterday. The United States economy ended 2021 by expanding at a 6.9% annual pace from October through December, according to Bureau of Economic Analysis. Nonetheless, the overall reading is still slight downgrade from its previous estimation. Economist predicted that the growth in future is likely to slow sharply in the year of 2022 as spiking numbers of inflation rate prompted by the earlier aggressive expansionary monetary policy would likely to weigh down on consumer spending. On top of that, the US Home Sales have fallen following the Federal Reserve has started the implementation of rate hike, leading to a sharp increase in borrowing costs. Exports may weaken as overseas economies are disrupted by Russia\u2019s invasion of Ukraine. As of writing, the Dollar Index depreciated by 0.57% to 97.98.<\/p>\n

In the commodities market, the crude oil price surged 0.08% to $108.95 per barrel as of writing following the released of the bullish inventory data. According to Energy Information Administration (EIA), US Crude Oil Inventories came in at -3.449M, better than the market forecast at -1.022M. On the other hand, the gold price surged 0.02% to $1932.95 per troy ounces as of writing.<\/p>\n
