June 26 – As another lackluster spring sales season draws to a close, U.S. mortgage rates have risen slightly. Freddie Mac said in a statement Thursday that the average rate for a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage rose to 6.49% from 6.47% a week earlier. A year ago, the rate was 6.77%. High borrowing costs have been weighing on the housing market; previously, Middle East conflict pushed up energy prices and inflation, leading to higher borrowing costs. This situation, occurring during the peak sales season, has exacerbated anxiety for both buyers and sellers. According to Redfin data, in the week ending June 21, the number of new listings fell 1.7% from the previous week, reaching its lowest level since February. Zillow senior economist Kara Ng said, “Rate rates around 6.5% are still better than a year ago, which continues to provide some support for homebuyers. But this is not enough to make a major breakthrough in improving home affordability.” Zillow expects rates to remain between 6.4% and 6.5% throughout the summer, before gradually falling back to around 6.2% by the end of the year.The United States and Gulf states reiterated that no one will be forced to leave Gaza, and those who wish to leave will be free to return.The United States and the Gulf states: Negotiations are not contingent on the outcome of other conflicts.Google (GOOG.O): Today, we also launched the all-new Google Finance app for Android.

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.
