9th December

Looking ahead, Chinese CPI forecast at 4.4% vs. 5.5%  y/y previously.

8th December

The Australian Dollar (AUD) rallied on solid GDP numbers for the Q3 coming at 1.0% Q/Q which is one of the highest in the developed world supported by strong mining exports to China. The AUD/USD tested 1.0300 in the US session but found solid resistance and went very quiet ahead of tonight’s ECB risk event. Looking ahead, November Unemployment Change forecast at 10.6k vs. 10k previously. Unemployment rate is forecast to remain at 5.2%.

6th December

The Australian Dollar (AUD) the AUD/USD traded between 1.0200 and 1.0300 but ended at 1.0250 as the market was steady ahead of the RBA meeting today.

The central bank may look to the recent slowing Chinese economy to justify the rate cut however as well as the ongoing EU uncertainty. Looking ahead, RBA Rate announcement forecast at 4.25% vs. 4.5%.

5th December
