Greenback slumped amid ongoing woes in US banking sector.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The dollar index, which traded against a basket of six major currencies, lost its ground while teetering near the brink of collapse as the ongoing banking sector woes coaxed investors to stay away from the dollar market. Yesterday, the US Federal Reserve and other major central banks took joint action for dollar liquidity to support the country’s tide through the banking crisis. In detail, the central banks, which include the Federal Reserve, the Bank of Canada, the Bank of England, the Bank of Japan, and the European Central Bank, have enhanced the swap lines’ effectiveness in providing US dollar funding, where all of them agreed to increase the frequency of 7-day maturity operations from weekly to daily and continuing at least until the end of April. The swap lines agreement was initially introduced during the era of the 08\u2019 Lehman Crisis, when the Fed provided temporary dollar liquidity swaps to overseas central banks to address short-term dollar liquidity shortages outside the U.S. Against the backdrop, the action from the central banks dragged down the dollar value. On top of that, with the increasing expectation of a rate hike pause from the Fed, the appeal of the dollar index dropped further. As of writing, the dollar index edged down -0.39% to 103.30.<\/p>\n

In the commodities market, crude oil prices were down by -0.19% to $67.35 per barrel as the uncertainty risk continued to linger in the market.\u00a0 Besides, gold prices ticked down by -0.02% to $1978.00 per troy ounce amid profit-taking by the traders.<\/p>\n
