Dollar flirts 16 -months high after ADP delivers.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Greenback was seen hovering near 16-months high against other major currencies on Wednesday over the backdrop of optimistic private labor market data. The dollar index was quoted up 0.02% to 96.82 during Asian trading session. In the labor market front, ADP reported that the total number of private payrolls came in at 227,000 for the month of October, exceeding economist forecast to come in at only 189,000. The bullish results came into surprise for many as analysts were expecting a downbeat result due to prior month\u2019s fallout from Hurricane Florence. However, gains on the dollar were limited as pound sterling rebounds from its session low amid hopes of reaching a Brexit deal with EU sooner than later. Market sentiment turned positive after a letter from Brexit minister Dominic Raab indicated that the UK and EU could reach consensus with regards to Brexit deal by November 21st<\/sup>. However, gains on the sterling were also limited as Raab admitted that there was no \u201cconcrete\u201d date being set for the negotiation to take place for the time being. As such, pair of GBP\/USD ticked up 0.04% to 1.2771 as of writing.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

On to the commodities market, crude oil price was down more than 11% on yesterday, its biggest monthly loss in nearly 2 years as the market was unconvinced with US oil embargo against Iran which could do little harm as expected from before. In addition, China signaled to execute further economic stimulus measure after recent economic data showed that the current policies are not yielding their prior expected results. Such bearish sentiment against the world\u2019s largest oil importer has further fueled the selloff against the crude oil prices. As of writing, crude oil price mended its losses by 0.19% to $64.92 per barrel. Otherwise, gold price was up 0.21% to $1,217.13 a troy ounce following risk aversion within the market following bearish economic outlook against world largest economic powerhouse \u2013 China.<\/p>\n
