Dollar drop due to stock market turmoil.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dollar index weakened against a basket of six major currency pairs caused by stock market turmoil during early Asian trading session. According to reports, Apple Inc. announced its revenue forecast to fall for the first quarter amid trade war tensions between US and China and also the slowdown in global economic growth. Besides that, worsening China manufacturing sector had also affected Apple\u2019s forecasted revenue and also the fall in Australian and New Zealand dollar. Worsening global market sentiment and growth caused investors to seek protection from safe haven assets such as Japanese Yen and gold. On the other hand, the slowdown in global economy growth boosted the Yen as the Japanese pair hit a 9-months low. Dollar index fell by 0.20% to 96.15 while pair of USD\/JPY plunged 1.33% to 107.15 as of writing.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the commodities market, crude oil price plummet by 1.15% to $45.67 per barrel following stock market turmoil and also slowdown in global economic growth. The fall in oil price was also due to trade war tensions and also poor China manufacturing data. Investors are worried that the demand for crude oil will fall while OPEC\u2019s production cut might not able to balance the low crude oil prices. On the other hand, gold price rose by 0.33% to $1288.30 a troy ounce amid risky market uncertainties which boosted the demand for safe haven gold.<\/p>\n
