Overnight, despite the release of mixed manufacturing index data, the Greenback has successfully gained on its foot after the U.S. Department of Labor reported a decline in initial jobless claims by 4,000 to a seasonally adjusted 226,000, beating the expected reading of 230,000. In addition, an optimistic market sentiment towards rate hike by Federal Reserve next week provided further support to the dollar bull. On the contrary, GBP\/USD fell 0.19% to $1.3915 amid flaring of Brexit-related issues when the trio \u2013 United Kingdom, European Commission and Irish government are being reported to hold talks on the Irish-border issue which could resist smooth Brexit negotiations.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">In the commodities market, crude oil price was traded steadily within key level at $61.10 after the International Energy Agengy (IEA) raised its forecast for oil demand to increase from 97.8 million bpd to 99.3 million bpd this year, but added that the commodity could be supplied at a faster rate. Otherwise, gold price extended losses by 0.20% to $1314.16 a troy ounce following dollar that regained its bullish strength yesterday.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>Today\u2019s Holiday Market Close<\/u><\/p>\n<p><strong>Time\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Market\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Event<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>N\/A<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>Today\u2019s Highlight Events<\/u><\/p>\n<p><strong>Time\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Market\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Event<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>N\/A<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>Today\u2019s Highlight Economy Data<\/u><\/p>\n<table width=\"100%\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"9%\"><strong>Time<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"55%\"><strong>Nation &amp;
