According to Reuters, the centerpiece of the deal is a pledge by China to purchase at least an additional $200 billion worth of U.S. farm products and other goods and services over two years, while the United Stated promised that they will roll back some tariffs from China. Nonetheless, investors would need to focus on the effectiveness in the implementation of the phase one deal while also scrutinizing the latest updates with regards of the \u201cphase-two\u201d trade deal between the U.S and China in order to receive a further trading signal. Besides that, the dollar index received a further bearish momentum over the backdrop of the bleak economic data from the United Stated. According to U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Producer Price Index (PPI) for the last month came in at 0.1%, missing the economist forecast of 0.2%, which dialed down the market optimism toward the economic growth in the United Stated while prompting a higher expectation for the rate cut in order to boost the economic progression in future. As of writing, dollar index slumped 0.18% to 96.89.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the commodities market, the crude oil price appreciated by 0.07% to $58.12 per barrels as of writing. The oil markets edged higher following the inventory data was released. According to Energy Information Administration (EIA), the U.S. Crude Oil Inventories notched down from the previous reading of 1.164M to -2.549M, better than the economist forecast of -0.474M. However, investors worried that the oil market could get into another oversupply situation from seasonal lows in consumption, which limited the gains experienced by this black commodity. On the other hand, as of writing, the gold price appreciated by 0.03% to $1556.10 per troy ounces amid to weaker Greenback.<\/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>20:30\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0EUR\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0ECB Publishes Account of Monetary Policy Meeting<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>Today\u2019s Highlight Economic Data<\/u><\/p>\n<table width=\"105%\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"11%\"><strong>Time<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"53%\"><strong>Nation &amp; Data<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"13%\"><strong>Previous<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"11%\"><strong>Forecast<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"10%\"><strong>Actual<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"11%\">15:00<\/td>\n<td width=\"53%\">EUR \u2013 German CPI (MoM) (Dec)<\/td>\n<td width=\"13%\">0.5%<\/td>\n<td width=\"11%\">0.5%<\/td>\n<td width=\"10%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"11%\">21:30<\/td>\n<td width=\"53%\">USD \u2013 Core Retail Sales (MoM) (Dec)<\/td>\n<td width=\"13%\">0.1%<\/td>\n<td width=\"11%\">0.5%<\/td>\n<td width=\"10%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"11%\">21:30<\/td>\n<td width=\"53%\">USD &#8211; Philadelphia Fed Manufacturing Index (Jan)<\/td>\n<td width=\"13%\">2.4<\/td>\n<td width=\"11%\">3.8<\/td>\n<td width=\"10%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"11%\">21:30<\/td>\n<td width=\"53%\">USD \u2013 Retail Sales (MoM) (Dec)<\/td>\n<td width=\"13%\">0.2%<\/td>\n<td width=\"11%\">0.3%<\/td>\n<td width=\"10%\">&nbsp;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\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-97534\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/01\/160120-DOLLAR_INDX.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>DOLLAR_INDX, Daily: <\/strong>Dollar index was traded lower following prior retracement from the resistance level at 97.10.
