Chart 1: AUD/USD D1 chart
In the released monetary policy meeting minutes by the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) earlier today, the central bank highlighted that its committee members have started a discussion on the impact of the recent Evergrande developments on the international financial markets. The members highlighted that if the handling of Evergrande’s problems is not done orderly, this may lead to a negative impact on other developers and financiers. Nonetheless, the RBA said that the sharp price movements up until now have been limited to Evergrande’s own bond and equity prices, as well as some other local property developers and banks. Thus, the risk is still contained within China at the moment. Moreover, the People’s Bank of China said last Friday that the Evergrande’s debt problems on the banking system is controllable.
At the moment, the forming of a Double Bottom pattern in AUD/USD (D1) is almost complete after bouncing off its 2021 low of 0.71. With the Evergrande saga in control for the time being, the Australian dollar may strengthen against the U.S. dollar for now.
