US economy loses its steam?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Greenback was traded flat on Monday following growing fears of recession after US Treasury Yield curve inverted while coupled with bearish data from last Friday. As of writing, the dollar index ticks up 0.02% to 98.00. Last Friday, greenback failed to extend its gains further following diminishing momentum with regards to consumer sentiment. According to University of Michigan, its consumer sentiment index fell to 92.1 for the month of August, its lowest level since January 2019. Diminishing consumer sentiment came following yield curve inversion which historically predicted possible recession in the near future. Likewise, overall sentiment in the market remains bleak as ongoing trade war in between US and China sees no end as US President Donald Trump seemingly signaled that he is \u201cnot ready to reach a consensus\u201d. For the time being, investors will place their attention upon Federal Reserve\u2019s annual Jackson Hole gathering later this week whereby Fed Chair Jerome Powell will deliver its speech this Friday. On the other hand, pair of GBP\/USD rose 0.07% to 1.2157. Pound sterling managed to extend its rebound following bullish employment data that was released during last Thursday.<\/p>\n

In the commodities market, crude oil price rose 0.46% to $55.14 per barrel. Oil prices recoup its losses after OPEC reported a sharp fall in crude oil output for the month of July which may help to ease global supply glut. Otherwise, gold price depreciates by 0.23% to $1,510.00 a troy ounce due to increasing demand for risky assets.<\/p>\n
