11 November 2019 Morning Session Analysis
Trump spurs higher uncertainty in the market.
US dollar extended its gains last Friday, touching three-week high against other major currencies following higher risk appetite for higher yielding assets in the market. As of writing, the dollar index notched up 0.26% to 98.16. Last Friday, US President Donald Trump spurred higher uncertainty upon US-China trade resolution after he said that he has not agreed to roll back tariffs. His comment came a day after US and China reportedly agreed to roll back tariffs on each other in order to achieve phase one of trade deal. However, a separate report also contradicts with the news whereby the rollback aces fierce internal opposition within the White House and other advisors. Overall, market sentiment remains supportive for risky assets as efforts has been made by both countries in order to achieve a trade agreement which will substantially diminishes recessive risk upon the global economy. On the other hand, pair of USD/CAD ticked up 0.01% to 1.3229. Canadian dollar undergoes further selloff after Canada’s job market data stagnated in October, losing 1,800 net positions, missing economists’ forecast of generating 15,900 net positions.
In the commodities market, crude oil price slumped 0.47% to $57.09 per barrel. Oil futures experienced some selloff pressure as investors began to liquidate their holdings and take profit from the recent rally in oil prices. On the other hand, gold price rose 0.13% to $1,460.37 a troy ounce following rising uncertainty with regards to US-China trade negotiation.
