NFP and Powell\u2019s speech on-eyed; Dollar\u2019s fate to be unveiled.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Dollar index was traded lower against a basket of major currencies by 0.11% to 89.96 following the release of softer economic data and escalation of US-China trade spat. Overnight, initial jobless claims has been reported to increase by 24,000 to a seasonally adjusted 242,000 last week as compared to economists\u2019 forecast for a rise to 225,000. In addition, U.S. trade deficit added further bearish pressure on the Greenback after the gap between imports and exports in the region has been widened from $56.70 billion to $57.60 billion. During Asian trading session today, Greenback extended its bearish momentum attributed to threatening remark by President Trump to consider imposing $100 billion in additional tariffs on China as a revenge towards the party\u2019s unfair retaliation against U.S. trade actions earlier. All in all, dollar-bull is expected to remain limited as market participants await further cues from the release of Non-farm Payroll reports as well as speech by Fed Chair Jerome Powell due tonight. On the contrary, GBP\/USD pared its losses by 0.10% to $1.4017. The pair received downside pressure following the release of disappointing services PMI in UK, last stood at 51.7 versus the expected reading of 53.9. However, market sentiment towards Pound Sterling remained optimistic following their anticipation towards Bank of England (BoE) to increase its rate by 25bp in the month of May.<\/p>\n

In the commodities market, crude oil price was down 0.66% to $63.09 per barrel after Qatar\u2019s Energy Minister Mohammed al-Sada noted that OPEC and non-OPEC should keep momentum in cooperating with regards to oil market management, thus it was still too early to exit the oil cut as recovery in oil prices has not met with an increase in investments. Otherwise, gold price pared its losses by 0.51% to $1332.19 a troy ounce following a weakened dollar amid the release of NFP reports.<\/p>\n
