Comments: The Precious Metal which is a safe haven for the dollar has been on a steady decline for two weeks straight now because of the positive optimism of investors towards the global impact of the vaccine which could lead to the reopening of the economy.  Hence, this has boosted the U.S treasury yield higher, and Gold is currently on a bearish trend. However, Gold is currently on a support region of 1760 and might continue its movement down if the dollar pressure makes it to break this zone of support.

G20 Meeting  All Day

Comment: The dollar was up on Friday morning in Asia, holding onto gains made during the previous session where it climbed up from a three-year low after a surge in U.S. bond yields. The safe-haven yen’s decline came even as Asian stocks followed their U.S. counterparts down as the spike in yields fanned inflation worries. Emerging-market and commodity-linked currencies also retreated, with the Australian and Canadian dollars dropping from three-year highs.
