The currency received fresh boost from deepening civil unrest in Hong Kong after its international airport was closed for flights on Monday due to ongoing demonstration. On the other hand, a surprising election results in Argentina has sparked higher selloff upon its currency, stocks and bonds, which also increases the demand for safe-haven assets. Likewise, the Japanese yen received further support after 10-year US Treasury bond yield depreciated more than 4% on yesterday while major equity indexes eased more than 1%. Primary driver towards risk aversion from the US market was stemmed from ongoing trade war in between US and China which sees no stopping point that may carry on for a longer period of time. As of writing, pair of USD\/JPY ticks up 0.02% to 105.33, hovering near prior 7-months low. On the other hand, pair of AUD\/USD rose 0.09% to 0.6758. Australian dollar received some bullish momentum after NAB Business Confidence for the month of July came in at 4, slightly higher than forecast of 3. This shows that business sector which has lost significant momentum since early 2018 has recovered slightly for the time being.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the commodities market, crude oil price depreciates by 0.09% to $54.70 per barrel. Oil futures edged lower on Tuesday following higher expectation that future demand may diminish due to ongoing trade war in between US-China. Otherwise, gold price rose 0.41% to $1,517.38 a troy ounce due to weaker US dollar.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>Today\u2019s Holiday Market Close<\/u><\/p>\n<p><strong>Time\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Market\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Event<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>N\/A<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>Today\u2019s Highlight Events<\/u><\/p>\n<p><strong>Time\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Market\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Event<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>N\/A<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>Today\u2019s Highlight Economic Data<\/u><\/p>\n<table width=\"104%\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"13%\"><strong>Time<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"51%\"><strong>Nation &amp; Data<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"13%\"><strong>Previous<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"10%\"><strong>Forecast<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"10%\"><strong>Actual<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"13%\">16:30<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"51%\">GBP \u2013 Average Earnings Index +Bonus (Jun)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"13%\">3.4%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"10%\">3.7%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"10%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"13%\">16:30<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"51%\">GBP \u2013 Claimant Count Change (Jul)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"13%\">38.0K<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"10%\">32.0K<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"10%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"13%\">17:00<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"51%\">EUR \u2013 German ZEW Economic Sentiment (Aug)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"13%\">-24.5<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"10%\">-27.8<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"10%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"13%\">19:00<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"51%\">CrudeOIL \u2013 OPEC Monthly Report<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"13%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"10%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"10%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"13%\">20:30<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"51%\">USD \u2013 Core CPI (MoM) (Jul)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"13%\">0.3%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"10%\">0.2%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"10%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"13%\">04:30<\/p>\n<p>(14<sup>th<\/sup>)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"51%\">CrudeOIL &#8211; API Weekly Crude Oil Stock<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"13%\">-3.400M<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"10%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"10%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Technical Analysis<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-73544\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/08\/130819-DOLLAR_INDX-Noon.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>DOLLAR_INDX, H1: <\/strong>Dollar index remain traded in a sideway channel following recent rebound from the support level 97.10.
