Safe-haven in bid as trade talk in focus.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Japanese yen extended its gains against the greenback following higher risk aversion in the market while market participants ponder upon the two-day trade talk between US and China. As of writing, pair of USD\/JPY extended its losses by 0.17% to 109.92. Market participants are anxiously waiting for the conclusion of two-day trade talk in Washington later in the day to see if China negotiators can convince White House to back down on a threatened tariff hike. Prior, US President Donald Trump accused China of backtracking on their earlier commitments while threatening to raise existing tariff rate if no deal is being reached within this week. Due to rising uncertainty in the market, market participants flee towards safe-haven assets such as Japanese yen. Similarly, pair of AUD\/USD slumped 0.21% to 0.6974 due to Australian primarily reliance upon China as trade partner. As China enters into the next round of trade talk, market participants sold Australian assets for safe-haven in an act to flee from possible dominos effect if US and China fails to reach consensus.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As for commodities market, crude oil price depreciates by 0.68% to $61.53 per barrel. Oil futures received tremendous bearish pressure following higher risk aversion in the market amid US-China trade talk. Otherwise, gold price ticks up 0.02% to $1,281.09 a troy ounce due to weaker US dollar.<\/p>\n
