 <\/p>\n

Dollar lingered ahead of long-waited economic data.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The dollar index, which was traded against a basket of six major currencies, hovered near the level of 105.00 since the beginning of the week as the market participants are waiting for more economic data to scrutinize the direction of the currency. Following the announcement of the ISM Non-Manufacturing PMI data, the dollar index has experienced a rather slow movement. Despite, we may notice that the dollar index somehow still recorded some gains during the previous trading session as the risk-off environment urged the investors to fly into safe haven currency. At this juncture, the market participant remains cautious while waiting for the Initial Jobless Claims data. On the other side, the pair of USD\/CAD surged amid expected rate hike from the Bank of Canada (BoC). Yesterday, the official members of BoC adjusted its cash rate from 3.75% to 4.25%, in line with the expectation of the consensus. As of writing, the pair of USD\/CAD rose 0.24% to 1.3685.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the commodities market, the crude oil price rebounded by 0.22% to $72.85 per barrel after slumping more than 4% yesterday amid the stockpiles of distillates stock and petrol in the US. Besides, the gold prices dropped -0.22% to $1782.15 per troy ounce amid the strengthening of dollar index.<\/p>\n
