AUD rises after RBA keeps rates steady, MUFG expects steady gains
MUFG expects AUD/USD to grind higher, citing risk sentiment, expectations for Fed cuts, and a weaker US dollar.
The Reserve Bank of Australia held its policy rate at 4.35% in a unanimous decision, a move that initially weighed on AUD/USD but later failed to hold the decline, according to FXStreet.
FXStreet said Governor Bullock reiterated hawkish concerns about inflation, helping the Australian dollar rebound after the statement.
MUFG, as cited by FXStreet, expects AUD/USD to move gradually above 0.70, driven mainly by risk sentiment, expectations for Fed rate cuts, and a weaker dollar.
