AUD/USD Declines as RBA Holds Interest Rates Steady
Updated
The AUD/USD pair is experiencing continued downward pressure following the Reserve Bank of Australia's (RBA) decision to hold the Official Cash Rate (OCR) steady at 4.35% during its final policy meeting of the year. RBA Governor Michele Bullock articulated this choice at a press conference, highlighting that the interest rate has remained at this 12-year high for nine consecutive meetings in December. Currently, the price is trading around 0.6395, reflecting this bearish trend.
Market participants are keenly awaiting key economic data, including the upcoming US Consumer Price Index (CPI) announcement and Thursday's unemployment claims, along with the Core Producer Price Index (PPI). These reports are anticipated to introduce considerable volatility into the market. Should favorable economic indicators emerge for the USD, the AUD/USD could potentially approach the next demand zone. At this time, we are not looking to initiate any positions but rather to monitor the price movement and await a possible reach toward that demand area.

Note
The Australian Dollar (AUD) has successfully halted its four-day decline on Monday as the US Dollar (USD) experiences slight downward pressure. This movement comes in conjunction with tepid US Treasury yields, as investors position themselves ahead of the Federal Reserve’s (Fed) crucial interest rate decision scheduled for Wednesday. Market participants are closely monitoring these developments, which could significantly impact the AUD's trajectory in the days to come.
