Greenback extend losses after weak ADP data release.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

U.S dollar measuring its basket of six major currency pairs have fell on Wednesday as weak payrolls data underlined worries over the strength of the economy. According to the official data released by Automatic Data Processing Inc (ADP), U.S. private sector have posted its lowest job growth in 18 months, with the reading of only 129K, lower than economic forecast with the reading of 170K. The weak data could support the Federal Reserve to extending a pause on rate hikes, as the central bank remains concerned about slowing domestic growth. At the same time, ISM Manufacturing PMI data also record lower than expected results with only 56.1 against market forecast of 56.1, adding further confirmation on economic slowdown in the US. As of writing, dollar index slips 0.28% to 97.09. On the other hand, GBP manage to hold to its ground and remain steady despite Service PMI came disappointing results. According to Markit, UK service sector have weaken as the data came in at 48.9, weaker than expected reading of 50.0. However, the sterling manage to secure its gains on high level as market investors remain positive following U.K. Prime Minister Theresa May offered talks to opposition leader Jeremy Corbyn to ensure an orderly and negotiated departure from the European Union, rather than give in to lawmakers on her own side who are ready to accept the consequences of a disorderly Brexit without transitional arrangements which showing signs of a possible breakthrough on Brexit. GBPUSD skyrocketed 0.30% to 1.3167 at the time of writing.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As for commodities, crude oil price have gave up some of its gains and fell 0.28% to $62.45 per barrel following a surprise increase in its inventories. According to recent reports from EIA, crude oil stocks have increased 7.2 million barrels in the week ending March 29 which is surprisingly weak compared to analysts’ estimate for a draw of 425K barrels, thus dragging the sentiment with the initial reaction to the data. However, market remains optimistic on long term and remain in focus on further catalyst that could affect the oil market. Next, gold price edge higher 0.05% to $1292.20 a troy ounce at the time of writing following a weak dollar affected by disappointing ADP data.<\/p>\n
