Greenback fumbles although NFP delivers.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

US dollar extended its losses although recent jobs report shows within expectation reading for last month. According to US Bureau of Labor Statistics, Nonfarm Payrolls for the month of July came in at 164,000, well within economist forecast. On the other hand, Average Hourly Earnings tick up by 0.1% to 0.3% for last month while unemployment rate remains steady at 50-years low of 3.7%. However, greenback failed to garner any substantial bullish momentum as the Nonfarm Payrolls data for the past few months portrays diminishing hiring momentum. Likewise, the data also failed to ease market speculation for an interest rate cut next month as it is currently priced in with a 98.5% as of writing. In addition, demand for risky assets in the market remains tepid following escalating trade tension in between US and China after Washington threatened to impose another 10% tariff starting 1st<\/sup> September. Following the announcement, traders shifted their portfolio from risky assets into safe-havens such as Japanese yen or Swiss Franc. For the time being, investors will continue to monitor economic developments in the US as well as current trade tensions in order to attain more market signals. During Asian trading session, the dollar index ticked down 0.01% to 97.80.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the commodities market, crude oil price rose 0.27% to $55.27 per barrel. However, gains on its price remains limited as the latest round of US tariffs upon China would likely weaken global oil demand. Such measure would also push Beijing to purchase Iranian oil as a retaliation move that may lower global crude oil prices due to escalating tensions with US. On the other hand, gold price depreciates by 0.27% to $1,436.97 a troy ounce due to diminishing risks and a shift back into risky assets in the market.<\/p>\n
