 <\/p>\n

Waning prospect boosted greenback\u2019s appeal.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Greenback threaded water against other major peers while more central bank around the world opted dovish stance towards deteriorating conditions on global economy. The latest shift came from Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) which bring some surprise to the market by signaling to decrease interest rates due to bearish economic outlook. Among its peers however, US economy remains resilient although some facet portrays slight depreciation in terms of its activity and momentum. Thus, greenback remains favorable among market participants when comparing it with other currencies such as pound sterling and euro. On the other hand, Euro continues its bearish bias after Germany\u2019s 10-year bond yield fell below neutral level with -0.09%, its lowest level in two-and-a-half years. Market prospect upon the region remains bleak following waning economic progression in the European bloc, especially Germany \u2013 EU\u2019s largest economic body. In terms of market movement, dollar index stabilizes around 96.34 while pair of EUR\/USD traded flat around 1.1252.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the commodities market, crude oil price extended its losses by 0.32% to $58.98 per barrel during Asian trading session. Oil prices received further bearish pressure following a surprise increase in US crude inventories as reported by Energy Information Administration. Otherwise, gold price ticked down 0.01% to $1,309.90 a troy ounce while its appeal faded due to a shift from safe-haven towards the US dollar market.<\/p>\n
