AUD/USD to drift higher over coming year, reaching 0.73 by end-2024 – NAB
Late Monday at 22:00 GMT sees Australian Purchasing Manager Index (PMI) numbers as the Pacific markets head into the early Tuesday trading window, but Aussie traders will be keeping their eyes turned forward, looking ahead to Wednesday's Australian Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation print.
On Tuesday, the USD side sees US PMIs, and investors are broadly anticipating a mild downtick in the manufacturing and services components; US Manufacturing PMI is seen declining from 49.8, with the Services component likewise expected to decline from 50.1 to 49.9.
The annualized Australian Monthly Consumer Price Index (CPI) last printed at 5.2%, and markets are forecasting an uptick in CPI inflation on Wednesday, with the index expected to increase 5.4% for the year into September.
AUD/USD Technical Outlook
Despite Monday's bounce, the Aussie remains woefully bearish against the US Dollar in the near term, with the pair still trading below last week's highs and sticking close to eleven-month lows.
Technical resistance continues to press down on prices from a descending 50-day Simple Moving Average currently settling into the 0.6400 handle, with October's lows below 0.6300 serving as the only meaningful support for current price action.
