Overview

The USD got here below some
strain at the beginning of final week following the US CPI report as the info got here
largely according to expectations. Within the following days although, we bought some
hottish knowledge with the US PPI beating expectations by a giant margin, the US
Jobless Claims enhancing additional and the inflation expectations within the UMich
survey shocking to the upside.

Total, we ended the week
principally flat on the US greenback because the aggressive dovish expectations on the
Fed bought trimmed a bit. However, given the overreaction from the Fed
members to the final tender NFP, a September lower seems unavoidable now and solely a
scorching NFP report in September may get us to a 50% chance (though it
will surely diminish expectations for fee cuts after the September one).

The main target has now switched
to Fed Chair Powell’s speech on the Jackson Gap Symposium on Friday. Merchants
will likely be desirous to see if he modifies his stance as nicely. Most certainly although, he
gained’t pre-commit to something and simply reiterate that they’ll resolve primarily based on
the totality of the info.

On the AUD aspect, the RBA
lower rates of interest by 25 bps as extensively anticipated however didn’t supply a lot in phrases
of ahead steerage, though their focus switched extra in direction of the labour
market. The most recent employment report missed by a little bit margin on the headline
quantity however general the info was good. The market is seeing 33% chance of a
fee lower on the upcoming assembly with a complete of 35 bps of easing anticipated by
year-end.
