According to Reuters, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell confirmed a 50-basis point of rate hike during the monetary policy meeting next month, including consecutive rate increases in the year of 2022. Fed funds futures have started to speculate a three straight 50 basis-point interest rate hikes starting with next month\u2019s policy meeting. With inflation running roughly three times higher than the Fed\u2019s target, it would prompt the Fed to be tightening the monetary policy in more aggressive ways to stabilize the inflation risk.\u00a0 As of writing, the Dollar Index appreciated by 0.24% to 100.65.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the commodities market, the crude oil price surged by 0.03% to $103.48 per barrel as of writing.
