0549 GMT - The U.S. dollar's upward momentum against its Singapore counterpart continues to build, based on weekly chart, says Quek Ser Leang of UOB's Global Economics & Markets Research. The U.S. dollar-Singapore dollar pair surged above both the declining trendline and the 55-week exponential moving average during last Friday's New York session, the senior technical strategist notes. The currency pair "subsequently closed 1.11% higher at 1.2908, its highest weekly close this year," the strategist says. "A break above 1.2930 would increase the risk of a move toward 1.3000," the strategist adds. The U.S. dollar is 0.1% higher at 1.2903 Singapore dollars, LSEG data show. (ronnie.harui@wsj.com)
