Sterling collapse, Brexit pending.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Pound sterling extended its losses overnight following bearish economic data and Brexit uncertainty which looms the UK market. As of writing, pair of GBP\/USD recouped some losses by 0.05% to 1.2910 while the dollar index rose 0.20% to 97.28. For the month of March, Average Earnings Index +Bonus came in at only 3.2%, missing economist forecast for a reading of 3.4%. Likewise, Claimant Count Change in April shows an increase in unemployment with 24.7K, missing forecast for a reading of 24.2K. All the data portrays to a slower consumer spending and inflation due to lower wage growth and an uptick in unemployment benefit registration. Additionally, market sentiment towards sterling turned sour as recent report shows that UK PM Theresa May will put forward her Brexit proposal for vote during the week beginning on June 3rd<\/sup>. As there are no changes being made upon the proposal for the time being, investors are currently pricing in for a similar rejection as opposition Labor Party will adhere to their own prior demands.<\/p>\n

In the commodities market, crude oil price depreciates by 0.05% to $61.30 per barrel. Oil prices received some bearish momentum after American Petroleum Institute reported a build up in crude inventories by 8.6 million barrels last week. On the other hand, gold price ticked down 0.02% to $1,296.81 a troy ounce due to a rebound in US dollar.<\/p>\n
