US dollar tumbled as debt ceiling issue remained unsolved.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The dollar index, which was traded against a basket of six major currencies, reverted its previous gains yesterday as the market participants are waiting for a clearer signals from the US on how they are going to avoid a first ever default before 1st<\/sup> June. At this point in time, the Joe Biden has scheduled a meeting to talk with the congressional leaders on tomorrow morning before he leaves for G7 meeting in Japan. Prior to that, the talk on last Sunday between the two sides have been \u201cconstructive, according to the Deputy Treasury Secretary Wally Adeyemo. The White House has not ruled out imposing annual spending caps, whereby the Republicans has been emphasizing that the annual spending caps are necessary for them to agree on raising the nation’s $31.4 trillion debt limit. However, the two parties do not appear close to a deal and it is seemingly that the stalemate would remain for a longer time as both parties maintain their own provincial hardline stance. Besides, the US Treasury secretary has repeatedly called on Congress to agree to raise the US $31.4tril federal borrowing limit to avoid the “economic and financial catastrophe” that would ensue if the US defaulted on its debt. As of writing, the dollar index dropped -0.25% to 102.40.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the commodities market, crude oil prices edged up by 0.64% to $70.55 per barrel amid wildfires in Canada boosted the prospect of tightening supply. Besides, gold prices ticked up by 0.02% to $2016.10 per troy ounce as the dollar retreated from its recent high level.<\/p>\n
