Overnight, Greenback received its initial boast after building permits rose by 1.8% to 1.347 million units versus the expected reading for 2.3% decline, while U.S. industrial output recorded gains of 0.7% as compared to the economists\u2019 forecast for 0.5% gains. However, gains on the Greenback was erased following a weaker-than-expected U.S. homebuilding data, last stood at 3.7% decline versus the forecast reading of 0.7% decline. The currency has failed to stand on its foot following recent rebound of Euro from its low level despite reports that Italy\u2019s anti-establishment 5-Star Movement and anti-immigrant League may inquire the European Central Bank (ECB) to forgive $294.18 billion of debt. As of writing, EUR\/USD pared its losses by 0.03% to $1.1810.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">In the commodities market, crude oil price extended gains by 0.21% to 71.63 per barrel following a large draw in U.S. crude supplies by 1.404 million barrels last week versus the expected reading for a reduction of only 0.763 million barrels.
