Abstract:Subsequent to an upbeat start to the key week, the risk profile fades optimism as the Chine-inspired risk-on mood fails to get many takers while the Fed policymakers push back against dovish bias. Additionally weighing on the risk profile could be the cautious mood ahead of multiple central bankers’ panel discussion at the Riksbank event.
Subsequent to an upbeat start to the key week, the risk profile fades optimism as the Chine-inspired risk-on mood fails to get many takers while the Fed policymakers push back against dovish bias. Additionally weighing on the risk profile could be the cautious mood ahead of multiple central bankers panel discussion at the Riksbank event.
The mildly sour sentiment joined a rebound in the US Treasury yields to probe the US Dollar bears, which in turn exerted downside pressure on the risk barometer pair AUDUSD. Further, GBPUSD was also on the same line as inflation woes in the UK supersede upbeat prints of the second-tier data.
Gold prices also struggle around a seven-month high while Brent oil snaps a two-day uptrend. That said, the US equities closed mixed and so did their Asia-Pacific counterparts. However, the shares in Europe and the UK appear directionless during the initial hour of trading.
Cryptocurrencies also failed to ignore the US dollar rebound as BTCUSD and ETHUSD struggle around monthly highs.
Following are the latest moves of the key assets:
• Brent oil retreats to $79.00 after two-day uptrend, down 0.85% at the latest.
• Gold buyers struggle to keep the reins around the multi-day high below $1,900.
• USD Index bounces off the seven-month low, mildly bid near 103.20 by the press time.
• Wall Street closed mixed and challenged stocks in the Asia-Pacific region, as well as the equities in Europe and the UK.
• BTCUSD and ETHUSD remain firmer around $17,200 and $1,320 in that order.
