AUDUSD Trades Lower As USD Demand Rise

ASX 200
ASX 200

AUDUSD retreat for the second consecutive session from the two-week highs as the USD is stronger across the board. AUDUSD managed to rebound from 13-year lows amid an improvement in investors sentiment. Aussie failed to capitalize on stronger than expected Chinese manufacturing PMI. On the data front, the Australia RBA Commodity Index SDR came in at -10.2% well below the forecasts of -5.2% in March. 

Later on the day, we expect from USA the ADP Non-Farm Payrolls and the ISM Manufacturing PMI, which might drive the AUDUSD price.

RBA announced the previous week that it would buy government bonds up to two billion maturing in 2026 to June 2030.
