AUD shines as data delivers.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Australian dollar rebounds sharply from its prior low level following the release of economic data from the region. As of writing, pair of AUD\/USD tacks up 0.43%, last quoted around 0.7098. According to Australian Bureau of Statistics, the Retail Sales for the month of March came in at 0.8%, exceeding economists\u2019 forecast for an appreciation of only 0.3%. The data has diminished some worries among investors as strong spending in the economy could underpin further economic growth in the region. In addition, Australian dollar received further support after China\u2019s Caixin Services PMI exceed expectations with 54.4 versus forecast of only 52.3. Recent economic data from China portrays a significant rebound in both manufacturing and services PMI and thus reducing some concern over global economic slowdown. On the other hand, dollar index retraced by 0.16% to 96.71 as market participants continues to digest bearish economic data from yesterday night. Likewise, recent rebound in US bond yields has come to an end as global central banks continues to adopt dovish rhetoric with regards to domestic and global economic projections.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As for commodities, crude oil price extended gains by 0.34% to $62.63 per barrel. Oil prices advanced for its third consecutive day following optimism over OPEC-led supply cuts and US sanctions against Iran and Venezuela which may help to solve global oversupply. Otherwise, gold price ticks up 0.04% to $1,293.10 a troy ounce following weaker US dollar.<\/p>\n
