After increasing in the medium-term, the partial pattern of loop started

Market Reviews of the Previous Day:
It is expected by the investors that in facing the economic turmoil, the Fed may launch the further stimulating scheme.
Market began to shift the focus to the annual meeting of global central banks held next week. Investors expected the Fed may announce the decision of the new loose monetary policy in this meeting. The increase of the liquidity in the market will not benefit the dollar. It is predicted that there will be downward pressure on the dollar.
Foreign exchange market basically continued the previous technical trend. There are still many uncertainties in the future. The recent wide range oscillation and fluctuation remained.
August 22, international gold closed higher. Due to the U.S. economic downturn, the Fed further implementation of the new round of monetary easing policy was expected to heat up, increasing gold's attractiveness as an inflation hedge asset.
