Cautious dollar-bulls as jobless claims rise.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Greenback halted its bearish decline after posting four consecutive days of losses as pound sterling enters into consolidation phase. Sterling bulls took a pause as investors digests the highly expected outcome with regards to recent Brexit developments. Earlier this morning, UK lawmakers have passed the motion to delay Article 50\/Brexit deadline of 29th<\/sup> March by with a majority votes of 412 versus 202. With strong backing from the Parliament, UK Prime Minister Theresa May is required to seek for an approval from the EU for an extension. Prior, European Commission stated that a request of extension would require unanimous agreement from all 27 member of states in the EU. Likewise, UK would have to provide valid justification for the extension while EU would consider such request with high priority in ensuring the function of EU institutions and taking account for duration of such extension. Leaders of EU is expected to meet next Thursday and Friday. However, gains on the US dollar were limited following the release of bearish data from the region. According US Department of Labor, Initial Jobless Claims for last week rose to 229,000 individuals, missing economists\u2019 forecast for a rise up to 225,000. A slight appreciation in jobless claims suggested that the labor market is growing slowly, stoking fears towards forthcoming recession amid global economic slowdown. As of writing, the dollar index was up 0.17% to 96.68 while pair of GBP\/USD was traded flat around 1.3248.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As for commodities, crude oil price tacks up 0.09% to $58.52 per barrel. Oil prices extended its gains for fourth consecutive day following bullish data from the United States which shows a large draw in oil inventories. Otherwise, gold price slid by 0.02% to $1,296.28 a troy ounce following diminishing risks in the market.<\/p>\n
