Trump slaps more tariffs!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Japanese yen receives higher demand in the FX market following a new round of tariffs from the United States. As of writing, pair of USD\/JPY slumped 0.35% to 109.22 during mid-Asian trading session. Earlier today, Trump administration announced to impose 5% tariff upon all imported goods from Mexico beginning June 10th<\/sup>. The tariff would be \u201cgradually increased\u201d until the flow of undocumented immigrants that crosses the border into United States stops. Such action has raised risk aversion among the market as imposition of tariffs would further increase recessive risks in the global economy. On the other hand, pair of EUR\/USD slipped 0.02% to 1.1133. Euro was traded lower following heightened market concern over Italy\u2019s rising debt level and prospect of Trump imposing tariffs upon automobile exports from the EU. For the time being, investors will continue to monitor the market in terms of trade tension to gain further market signals.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As for commodities, crude oil price slipped 0.73% to $55.93 per barrel. Oil futures received further bearish pressure following heightened trade tension after Trump imposes tariffs upon Mexico. On the other hand, gold price rose 0.25% to $1,291.63 a troy ounce following higher risk aversion in the market.<\/p>\n
