After dropping near to a crucial support level of 1.0900 during the Asian trading session, the AUD/NZD pair has since recovered considerably. Several offers have been submitted for the asset, and a purchase response is in the process. Strong purchase activity typically indicates that consumers thought the underlying product was a wise investment.

 

The cross is turning upwards as investors prepare for forceful words from the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA). For the third time in a row, RBA Governor Philip Lowe is expected to increase the Official Cash Rate (OCR) by 50 basis points (bps). Australia's inflation rate has increased to 6,1% as of the second quarter of CY2022, which has led to increased pricing pressure. Since the prices of commodities like oil and food continue to fluctuate, the inflation rate has not yet run out of room to rise.

 

In today's session, the release of the Caixin Manufacturing PMI data is quite important. The economic data is predicted to register at 51.5, slightly below the prior level of 51.7. A reduction in Chinese industrial activities will have an impact on the antarctic because Australia is China's main trading partner.

 

On the New Zealand front, kiwi bulls anticipate the release of employment numbers on Tuesday. According to projections, the jobless rate will drop from the previously reported 3.2 percent to 3.1 percent. In addition, the Employment Change may increase from the previous 0.1 percent to 0.4 percent.
