On September 1st, European Central Bank (ECB) Governing Council member Rehn stated that the ECB must prepare for a potential prolonged "consumption conflict" in the Middle East, which could lead to persistently high inflation in the Eurozone. Rehn said, "We must not be complacent about these inflationary pressures." He noted that energy prices have continued to rise due to the conflict in the Middle East and the near closure of the Strait of Hormuz. "We must not allow any affordability crisis in Europe," he said. Rehns remarks mark a shift in the policymakers stance, as he had previously focused more on growth risks than inflation, indicating a growing support for tightening policies within the ECB Governing Council.

ECB Governing Council member Rehns remarks are expected to reinforce market expectations of a 25-basis-point rate hike next week.

He added, "We cannot afford any burdensome crisis in Europe."

AUD/NZD Price Analysis: Bulls Surpass 1.0790 Resistance Confluence Due To Positive Australian Employment Report

AUD/NZD supporters are approaching their highest levels since early March as a result of a four-day uptrend following Thursday morning's release of robust Australian employment data. At the time of publication, the currency pair is accepting bids to reestablish the multi-day high near 1.0810.

 

The Australia Bureau of Statistics (ABS) reported for the month of March that Employment Change increased by 53K compared to 20K expected and 64.6K previously, while the Unemployment Rate remained unchanged at 3.6% compared to expectations of 3.6%. In addition, the Participation Rate rose to 66.7%, exceeding the 66.7% predicted by the market.

 

The AUD/NZD pair surpassed the previous critical resistance confluence surrounding 1.0790, which was comprised of the 100-day moving average (DMA) and a one-month-old downward trend line.

 

The bullish MACD signals and stronger, non-overbought RSI (14) line contribute to the strength of the upside bias.

 

The AUD/NZD bulls are currently positioned to test the 50-day moving average of 1.0824. However, the preceding monthly apex of about 1.0895 and the round number 1.0900 may limit future gains.

 

Alternately, retracement remains elusive until the AUD/NZD pair remains above the support-turned-resistance level of 1.0790.

 

Then, a breach of the upward-sloping trend line from March 5 and the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level of the pair's run-up from December 2022 to February 2023, located near 1.0705, could give the bears room to maneuver in their subsequent analysis.
