According to Office for National Statistics, UK\u2019s Gross Domestic Product for the fourth quarter grew at a slower pace with only 0.2%, missing economist forecast for a reading of up to 0.3%. The data has propelled market anxiousness towards UK\u2019s economy as they are bound to embrace recessive risks after Brexit. For the time being, investors will keep an eye upon UK Prime Minister Theresa May\u2019s statement to members of the parliament which has been rescheduled to Tuesday (initially Wednesday) for further signal with regards to Brexit negotiations. On the other hand, US dollar remained well supported as US-China trade talks shows little signs of progress. A failure to attain consensus between both countries would be deemed as beneficial for the US economy.<\/p>\n<p>In the commodities market, crude oil price slumped 0.10% to $52.31 per barrel. Oil prices remained under bearish pressure as traders embraced for an increase in supplies at Cushing, Oklahoma, the delivery point for crude futures as inventories levels hover at its yearly highs.
