As of writing, the dollar index ticked down 0.03% to 97.35 during Asian session. On yesterday, US Treasury Steven Mnuchin told CNBC that he and US Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer will be traveling to Shanghai next week for a two-day meeting starting on Tuesday. However, he said that there were \u201ca lot of issues\u201d to be discussed with regards to trade with China. On the other hand, no speech was schedule for any members of the Federal Reserve as next monetary policy inches closer. Due to recent mixed signals with regards to US economy, traders were concerned that the Fed may adopt a more aggressive rate cut in order to support growth and inflation momentum. According to Fed Rate Monitor Tool, market participants are currently anticipating a 100% for a rate cut by 25 basis points next week. However, the limelight will be placed upon Fed\u2019s statement and press conference in order to attain more signals with regards to their economic outlook and policy forward guidance.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, crude oil price recovered its losses by 0.11% to $55.83 per barrel.
