Dollar flat ahead of FOMC meeting minutes, pound under pressure.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Greenback measuring against a basket of six major currency pairs was traded flat after opening Monday\u2019s market with a large gap down. Recent downbeat economic data in the US in terms of inflationary level and manufacturing worsen the sentiment for dollar market as investors worry this week\u2019s meeting minutes might carry a dovish note. Besides that, recent statement from the Fed on future rate cuts are highly possible with recent data supporting their concerns on weakening economy. However, dollar was able to hold its ground following Brexit headlines as UK Speaker John Berkow ruled against Prime Minister Theresa May\u2019s motion on a third vote towards her Brexit deal. Berkow stated that another vote can only made possible if there\u2019s changes made towards the original deal, adding pressure onto May as she seeks approval from EU lawmakers for the extension of Brexit beyond 29th<\/sup> March. The pound market went under pressure as investors worry that a rejection from EU might lead to hard-Brexit which would send UK into a sharp recession. As of writing, dollar index fell by 0.03% to 95.90 while pair of GBP\/USD increased by 0.10% to 1.3265.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

For the commodities market, crude oil price further its gains by 0.10% to $59.30 per barrel after hitting a new high in 4-months following recent upbeat inventory data and OPEC\u2019s effort in its glut cut which had since brought significant impact onto its prices. Oil prices are expected to inch higher in the future as global supply decreases amid sanctions on Venezuela and Iran oil. Likewise, gold price extended increases by 0.10% to $1304.85 per troy ounce following dollar fall.<\/p>\n
