Dollar remains lifted as trade tension ease.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Dollar index extend its gains against a basket of six major currency pairs following trade tension between U.S and China have seemingly eased. According to the latest report, spokesman for China\u2019s Foreign Ministry Gao Feng have stated that China is willing to negotiate with the U.S. on trade issues \u201cwith calm attitude,\u201d adding that Beijing will not retaliate against U.S.\u2019s latest tariff moves for now. Besides that, China’s commerce ministry said on Thursday Beijing and Washington were discussing the next round of face-to-face talks scheduled for September which have since regained market confidence as the signs of talks were enough to mitigate worries about a further escalation. Market will continue to focus on the trade development and possible data to determine further sentiment for the greenback. At the same time, political risks from UK to Hong Kong and the Middle East added to the risks for the global economy and kept many investors on edge, boosting demand for safe-haven appeal such as Japanese Yen. Dollar index rose 0.05% to 98.40 while USD\/JPY fell 0.02% to 106.46 as of writing.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As for commodities, oil price extend its gains by 0.11% to $56.70 per barrel at the time of writing as market remains lifted by a decline in U.S inventories and a looming hurricane in Florida. U.S. crude stocks dropped last week by 10 million barrels to their lowest since October. Besides that, market remain focused and monitoring on the progress of Hurricane Dorian where it could potentially shut down oil production, adding further boost for the commodity. On the other hand, gold price fell 0.23% to $1524.38 a troy ounce at the time of writing as dollar remain buoyed by trade hopes which diminished the appeal of safe-haven gold.<\/p>\n
