The USD weakened throughout the
board final week as a result of a extra dovish than anticipated FOMC resolution final week
the place the Fed determined to sign an even bigger QT taper starting in June and the Fed
Chair Powell pushing again repeatedly towards fee hike expectations. Furthermore,

confirmed that the Fed may certainly simply preserve charges greater for longer as job and
wage progress soften. However, the USD has been within the driving seat this
week regardless of the dearth of financial knowledge or main adjustments within the fundamentals.

CPI report the place the information beat expectations by an enormous margin pushing fee cuts
expectations additional away to Q2 2025 and elevating the probabilities of a fee hike.

chart, we will see that AUDUSD couldn’t break above the important thing resistance
zone across the 0.6650 degree because the RBA disillusioned the patrons and the USD weak spot

push the worth past the resistance. There’s not a lot to work with this week,
so the technicals may stay within the driving seat.

retracement degree. The patrons, then again, will wish to see the worth
breaking to the upside to invalidate the bearish setup and place for a rally
again into the 0.6650 resistance.
