Powell\u2019s testimony in focus today. <\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Dollar index was consolidating the 90.0 handle with less volume while market participants are looking ahead to Fed Chairman Powell\u2019s testimony before the House Financial Services Committee at 23:00 (GMT +8). On his first ever testimony, Powell is expected to provide his views on a wide range of topics which could serve as a catalyst to a more aggressive market movement later on. Market participants will be on-eyed towards the Fed\u2019s future plan on monetary tightening following U.S. 10-year bond yields which have approached the 3.00% psychological level. Meanwhile, some analysts predicted that the tightening path could be remained gradual following concerns over inflationary pressure in the region. On the contrary, GBP\/USD was down 0.08% to $1.3970 as of writing after Labor party took a different stance instead of a softer approach towards Brexit. According to Labor party leader Corbyn, they are considering a different Brexit deal regarding a new customs union with the EU which enables UK to trade seamlessly with the EZ without paying any duties. The Brexit saga was deemed to never ending which has negatively impacted on the Pound Sterling.<\/p>\n

Likewise, gold price rose 0.38% to $1335.77 a troy ounce while market participants await Fed Chairman Powell\u2019s testimony due tonight.<\/p>\n
