Will Brexit to go on smoothly?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

US dollar eases from its previous high on yesterday following a sharp rebound in pound sterling. As of writing, the dollar index was quoted down 0.05% to 93.30 while pair of GBP\/USD rose 0.44% to 1.2947. In the UK, British Prime Minister Theresa May commented that her talks with EU President Jean-Claude Junker with regards to Irish backstop and withdrawal agreement were \u201cconstructive\u201d. Her tone has sparked optimism among investors as EU has previously rejected any effort in re-negotiating the Brexit agreement. Likewise, positive development in both nations would hinder UK from exiting EU without a trade deal (an option which may be dire for both economies). On the other hand, pair of EUR\/USD fell 0.02% to 1.1337. Euro remains on the backfoot following soft industrial production data from Germany, signaling recessive economic momentum from EU\u2019s largest economy.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Otherwise, crude oil price plunged more than 4% on yesterday to $51.88 per barrel. Oil prices tumbled after Russian disincline to come further into OPEC\u2019s production cut plans while delays in US-China trade summit has dialed down market bets on the commodity\u2019s price. On the other hand, gold price ticked up 0.02% to $1,309.92 a troy ounce following a slight depreciation in US dollar.<\/p>\n
