 <\/p>\n

Dollar calms following absence of catalysts.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Dollar index was traded steadily against its major peers while last quoted at 89.60 as of writing following release of economic data that displayed mixed results while political and trade uncertainties continued to weigh on dollar. Overnight, the Labor Department reported its producer price index that rose 0.2% last month, slightly better than the expected reading of 0.1%. However, the upbeat data has failed to lift the Greenback following release of U.S. retail sales data that recorded its third consecutive monthly decline by 0.1%, thus raising market fears over a potential slowdown in the growth of U.S. economy during the first quarter. In addition, concerns over political and trade uncertainties were heightened after U.S. President Trump has been reported to impose tariffs on $60 billion of Chinese imports mainly on the technology and telecommunication sectors. On the contrary, EUR\/USD fell 0.14% to $1.2380 following dovish remarks by European Central Bank (ECB) president Mario Draghi yesterday. During the meeting minutes, Draghi has mentioned that monetary stimulus would only be removed if there is more evidence that inflation is moving nearer to its target of 2%.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the commodities market, crude oil price rose by 0.43% to $61.02 per barrel following a massive draw in gasoline inventories by 6.271 million barrels while shadowing a large increase in crude stockpiles. Likewise, gold price extended gains by 0.20% to $1326.80 a troy ounce while dollar was still being pressured by bearish forces.<\/p>\n
