According to Bureau of Economic Analysis, the US Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in the forth quarter has notched down from the previous reading of 3.2% to 2.6%, missing the market forecast of 2.7%. Besides, the Initial Jobless Claims report had shown that the labor market in the US turned fragile, whereby the citizen who looking for the unemployment insurance increased last week. With such background, it cut the space for Fed officials to implement further rate hike in the future in order to restore economy stability. On the other hand, several Fed members offered their views on inflation and interest rates on yesterday. Though, the Dollar Index keep ranging at the recent low level, due to their different thoughts. One of the member claimed on yesterday that the inflation was still high in the US, which signaling Fed to increase its rate, while another member was concerned about the side effects of high interest rate. Thus, the Core PCE data that will be released today would be the key to gauge the next move of Fed. As of writing, the Dollar Index depreciated by 0.43% to 101.85.<\/p>\n
