On April 30th, a research report from CICC stated that the Federal Reserve maintained interest rates unchanged at its April meeting, in line with market expectations. However, four officials voted against the inclusion of dovish language, three of whom opposed it, indicating a more cautious monetary policy stance. The high oil prices triggered by the US-Iran conflict, combined with the effects of previous tariffs, have complicated the inflationary environment. Supply shocks have shifted from occasional events to the new normal, meaning that the scope for policy easing is compressed, and the threshold for interest rate cuts will rise. This meeting was also Powells last at the helm of the Fed. Although his successor, Warsh, signaled a move towards "balance sheet reduction and interest rate cuts," the committees collective decision-making mechanism makes it difficult to push for rate cuts in the short term. We believe the likelihood of a Fed rate hike this year is low, but the path to rate cuts will be longer, with the next rate cut potentially postponed until the fourth quarter.Samsung Electronics: Investment in artificial intelligence infrastructure is expected to expand in the second quarter.Japans retail sales in March totaled 14.306 trillion yen, compared with 12.155 trillion yen in the previous month.April 30th - According to a document from the U.S. Court of International Trade, the first batch of refunds for tariffs imposed by the Trump administration under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) on imported goods will be issued around May 11th.

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.
