Dollar climbed as recession fears wiped off.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The dollar index, which traded against a basket of six major currencies, extended its rally during the US market trading hours as a series of upbeat data put out the market fears against the recession risk. According to the Bureau of Economic Analysis, the US GDP for the third quarter rose 3.2%, beating both the consensus forecast and prior quarter reading at 2.9%. The stronger-than-expected GDP was mainly attributed to the increases in exports, consumer spending, oversea fixed investment as well as the government spending. Following the release of the data, investors rushed into the US dollar market as recession risk faded, while showing a better economic health condition compared to the other region. \u00a0On top of that, the US Department of Labor also reported that the weekly initial jobless claim increased slightly from 214K to 216K, but still lower than the consensus forecast at 222K. Nevertheless, it is still showing that the US labor market remained resilience, against the market expectation. As of writing, the dollar index rose by 0.23% to 104.40.<\/p>\n

In the commodities market, crude oil price was down by -1.54% to $77.30 per barrel as the cost oil purchase jumped following the appreciation of US dollar. Besides, gold prices depreciated by -1.20% to $1792.55 per troy ounce amid the strengthening of US Dollar.<\/p>\n
