Could NFP lift greenback to its grandeur?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Greenback extended its post-Federal Reserve meeting recovery despite mixed economic data from the region on yesterday. As of writing, the dollar index was quoted up 0.15% to 97.55. According to US Commerce Department, factory goods orders for the month of March came in at 1.9%, beating economist expectation for a rise of 1.0%. However, US Department of Labor shows that the initial jobless claims for last week remained unchanged at 230,000, missing economist forecast for a decline of 10,000 individuals to 220,000. Overall, the mixed data did little to hamper greenback\u2019s recovery after US government bond yields extended its rebound due to lower chances for a rate cut in the near-term. According to Fed Chair Jerome Powell, he reiterates that the current path of monetary policy remains appropriate and they will adopt a \u201cwait and see\u201d approach prior to tweaking their policy. On the other hand, pair of GBP\/USD fell 0.03% to 1.3032 during Asian trading session. Bank of England remained cautious with regards to UK\u2019s economic outlook due to Brexit risks and stands ready to act whenever it is needed. Likewise, BoE downplayed the prospects for an increased pace of rate hikes as they expect near-term inflation to steady below their target of 2%.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As for commodities, crude oil price recovered some losses by 0.18% to $61.61 per barrel. Oil price slumped more than 4% on yesterday while hitting one-month lows after data from Energy Information Administration shows that crude inventories were up nearly 30 million barrels in the last 5 weeks. Stocks has been building up since chemical plant fire in Houston port which delays the oil exports. Otherwise, gold price ticked down 0.01% to $1,270.60 a troy ounce due to substantial recovery of US dollar.<\/p>\n
