Iranian intelligence: Two “terrorist extremist group” action teams were destroyed in southeastern Iran, four terrorists were arrested, and two of them were killed.August 13th - Even after sources indicated that Prime Minister Sanae Takaichis government supported an interest rate hike, the yen remained near a key level against the dollar. The yen held steady on Thursday, trading around 159.36 against the dollar. Historically, when the exchange rate approaches 160, it usually signifies potential government intervention to support the yen. According to sources, the next interest rate adjustment is likely in September or October. They added that the central banks concerns about the weak yen pushing up prices, coupled with the governments desire to enhance the effects of recent US-Japan currency interventions, have led to a consensus on the necessity of an imminent rate hike. Investors said the news had little impact on the yen, as the market had already priced in a rate hike from the Bank of Japan. The yen has continued to weaken recently due to Japans large interest rate differential with the US and its heavy debt burden.A Reuters poll found that 55 out of 69 economists believe the European Central Banks deposit rate will reach 2.50% by the end of 2026.

Despite a Mixed China PMI and a Strengthening USD, AUD/USD Remains below 0.7200

AUD/USD struggles to rebound from its intraday low of 0.7160, ending a three-day climb above the monthly high, as Australian traders review Chinese activity data and domestic housing data on Tuesday morning. In doing so, the Australian dollar pair splits a three-day uptrend and decreases daily from its highest levels since the beginning of May.

 

China's official activity statistics showed a dip in May, with the headline NBS Manufacturing PMI meeting market forecasts at 49.6 compared to 47.4 earlier, and the Non-Manufacturing PMI falling to 47.8 below the market's 50.7 forecast.

 

In addition, Australia's Building Permits declined by -2.4 percent in April, compared to the anticipated 2.0 percent increase and previous readings of -18.5 percent.

 

Despite bad data from Australia's largest client and lower housing statistics at home, AUD/USD traders can maintain recent gains due to the market's mixed attitude and the US dollar's recovery.

 

As bond buyers take a vacation in the early hours of Tuesday, market excitement wanes, supporting a slide in riskier assets such as stocks and commodities. In addition, developments in Europe and consolidation at the conclusion of the month undermined the earlier risk-on mentality. Futures for the S&P 500 retrace from a three-week high that was reached the previous day in order to retest the 4,155 level. In addition, 10-year US Treasury yields have risen by 8.5 basis points (bps) to 2.835% as of press time.

 

Given the US recovery and a shift in market sentiment, as well as bad data from China and Australia, it is anticipated that the AUD/USD exchange rate will continue to decrease. Nevertheless, risk catalysts and secondary US activity statistics for the month of May must be attentively examined.

Technical Evaluation

A AUD/USD decline remains elusive as of press time till the pair holds above a 13-day-old support line near 0.7135. To satisfy buyers, though, recovery moves must rebuild the monthly high near 0.7270 by the latest.
