Dollar fall amid poor consumer sentiment, pound gains from Brexit extension. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Dollar index which measures the greenback against a basket of six major currency pairs was falling by 0.07% to 96.47 during early Asian trading session while being pressured by poor consumer sentiment. According to the University of Michigan, its consumer sentiment fell to 96.9, missing economists\u2019 expectation of 98.1 while indicating a worsening consumer sentiment in US economic conditions. Besides that, recent Brexit developments had since increase investors\u2019 risk appetite as they shift their portfolio from the dollar market to the pound last week, right after greenback extended its gains for three-weeks in a row. Investors will now focus on future economic data such as its March Retail Sales to further gauge the momentum of dollar. In other news, pair of GBP\/USD edged higher by 0.07% to 1.3088 as of writing following EU\u2019s approval for a longer Brexit extension to 31st<\/sup> October while the UK are struggling to approve a deal right before the next European\u2019s general election. Although the chance of no-deal Brexit had been lowered, the threat of longer-term economic damage as well as higher domestic political risks from Brexit limited the gains from the pound. Despite the holiday seasons, UK Parliament is expected discuss a new compromised plan this week to overcome the Brexit deadlock and hopefully to reach a deal where Prime Minister May will then seek approval from the EU.<\/p>\n

Recent reports also showed that Russia and OPEC may discuss for a boost production during the OPEC+ meeting in June. Likewise, gold price fell by 0.18% to $1287.95 per troy ounce amid investors\u2019 heightened risk appetite in the FX market.<\/p>\n
