Dollar standstill while awaiting for trade talk deal.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Dollar index which gauge its value against a basket of six currencies hovered near above three week low amid uncertainty of ongoing trade talk negotiation between China and US compel the market participant to remain cautious before entering into the market. Prior to the trade talk coming into a deal, greenback\u2019s market sentiment is in a chaos after U.S Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer said it was still early to predict an outcome in US-China trade negotiations. Besides, exaltation in geopolitical tensions between Pakistan and India has pushed up the risk aversion of investor, dragging the investor out from riskier asset and shifted their capital to safer asset such as Greenback. As of now, Dollar index inched down 0.04% to 95.95. On the other hand, AUDUSD quoted up 0.06% to 0.7144 despite China manufacturing PMI fall for a third consecutive month. According to China Logistics, the data came in at a reading of 49.2, as compared to economist\u2019s expectation of 49.5. Although Australia economic performance is highly correlated to China, but Aussie dollar eventually still managed to secure its position against US Dollar.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the commodities market, crude oil price dipped 0.14% to $56.90 per barrel amid downbeat China manufacturing PMI indicating factory output has decreased and likely lead to lesser demand on crude oil. Besides, gold price down 0.08% to $1318.50 a troy ounce amid technical correction from higher level.<\/p>\n
