Fundamental Analysis:- AUD/USD was the outperformer overnight with a steady drift higher throughout London to 0.6867 when the FOMC statement was digested and then further on the back of the presser where Federal Reserve’s Chairman, Jerome Powell, dropped the bomb by doubling down on his opinion that inflation would have to be ‘significantly’ and ‘persistently’ higher before Fed rates could be moved up again. On tariffs, in recent trade, we have very little to go on and it’s a waiting situation as US President Donald Trump will meet with top advisors today and likely make a subsequent decision to either ‘twist or hold’ in what will be very crucial game play.
