Sterling tumbles as Brexit agreement collapse.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

US dollar was opened higher on Monday following large selloff on the pound sterling due to the fallout of UK from reaching a Brexit deal with the EU. Brexit negotiation may become the main theme for the week as Irish border issue continues to circumvent any apparent deal to be made between Britain and Brussels. According to sources, Brexit Secretary Dominic Raab was forced to make last-minute visit to Brussels in order to seek more time from EU Chief Negotiator Michel Barnier over political uncertainty back in the UK. The diplomat was cautioned that any deal could be blocked by ministers in London as Prime Minister Theresa May\u2019s Brexit strategy is split between hard and soft Brexiteers. In addition, May\u2019s proposal to enact a \u201ctemporary customs union\u201d has garnered backslash within the Parliament as some ministers\u2019 postulate that it may turned into a permanent solution which could restrict their freedom to negotiate trade deals with other countries. As of writing, dollar index was up 0.11% to 94.95 while pair of GBP\/USD opened lower by 0.37% to 1.3106.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the commodities market, crude oil price rebounds by 1.12% to $72.25 per barrel. Oil prices continued its bullish momentum since last Friday after reports shows that China\u2019s export remained resilient albeit escalating trade war between Beijing and Washington. On the other hand, gold price rose 0.26% to $1,221.12 a troy ounce over the backdrop of escalating political and economic risk which arises from the UK over Brexit issues.<\/p>\n
