The AUD/USD pair is climbing towards 0.6552 on Monday. The Australian dollar is bouncing back from a 12-week low as investors await Australian inflation data.
In the past two weeks, the AUD, in the currency pair with the USD, has fallen more than 3%. This happened amid a global sell-off in risky assets and also due to weak reports from China.
This week, the release of crucial price statistics will significantly influence the Reserve Bank of Australia’s future course of action. Inflation is expected to have accelerated slightly in Australia in Q2 2024. For example, for April-June, inflation could have risen by 1.0% QoQ, the same as before. In annualised terms, it could accelerate to 3.8% from 3.6% previously. The data will be released on Wednesday.
This week, Australia’s macroeconomic calendar will be particularly active. The release of reports on last quarter’s retail sales, trade balance, exports and imports, and the producer price index will provide crucial insights into the economy. The stronger the data, the better – especially amid China’s economic weakness, Australia’s main economic partner. In this context, it is essential to remain resilient.
Currently, the market estimates the probability of the RBA interest rate hike in August to be 20%.
