Sterling plummeted following renewed Brexit fears.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The pound sterling which traded against the dollar have fell sharply after Boris Johnson announced his latest move on Brexit. On Tuesday, Prime Minister UK Boris Johnson have moved to change the law on Brexit, making it illegal for Britain to continue negotiations with the EU after 2020 despite warning from EU’s chief Brexit negotiator Michel Barnier which stated that making a “comprehensive” free-trade deal would be near impossible by the end of 2020. The move have renewed back fresh risk of a no deal Brexit where if the legislation is implement, UK and EU have only 11 months to struck a trade deal which most people think that is not enough time. And could steer the U.K back towards a hard Brexit. At the same time, disappointing jobs data also added further pressure for the pound as the Average Earning and Claimant Count Change data have shown a weaker reading of 3.2% and 28.8K against 3.4% and 21.2K respectively. At the time of writing, GBP\/USD fell 0.25% to 1.3093.<\/p>\n

In the commodities market, crude oil price pared its earlier gains and fell 0.09% to $60.46 per barrel at the time of writing following surprise inventory build. According to API, crude oil inventories rose by 4.7 million barrels in its stockpiles for the week ended Dec. 13. On the other hand, gold price remained steady and edge higher 0.02% to $1476.00 as of writing amid global uncertainty such as trade war and renewed fears of Brexit continue to support the price of gold.<\/p>\n
