In Wednesday’s AUD/USD price analysis, we find the Australian dollar showcasing resilience, surging to a four-month high despite a recent dip in Australia’s inflation in October. This decline in inflation is primarily attributed to lower goods prices. Notably, the Aussie benefited from a weakening greenback, which fell to an over three-month low. Speculation that the US Federal Reserve might begin rate cuts early next year is growing.Meanwhile, Australia’s inflation figures reinforce the argument for the RBA to hold rates next week. The monthly consumer price index in October increased at an annual rate of 4.9%, a slowdown from September’s 5.6%. Moreover, it was below the market’s 5.2% forecast.Furthermore, the CPI experienced a 0.3% decline in October alone, primarily due to decreased petrol prices, rent, and holiday travel. At the same time, the trimmed mean showed a 5.3% annual increase in October. Moody’s Analytics economist Harry Murphy Cruise remarked, “Australia’s October inflation print has no bad news. The lower-than-expected figure is an early Christmas present for households and businesses. Moreover, it spares the Reserve Bank Board from hiking in its meeting next week.”Nevertheless, analysts caution that the monthly inflation data heavily favored goods in the first month of the quarter. However, it did not include price changes for various services. Meanwhile, financial markets anticipate the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) to hold rates in December. Still, there is a 50% chance of a further hike to 4.60% in the first half of the next year.
