Asian Session: Live Market Analysis

AUD/USD attracts buyers for the third straight day and climbs back above the 0.7100 mark during the Asian session on Monday as trade-related uncertainties continue to weigh on the US Dollar. Apart from this, the divergent Fed-RBA policy expectations contribute to the Australian Dollar's relative outperformance. However, a softer risk tone could act as a headwind for the currency pair amid relatively thin liquidity during a bank holiday in Japan and China.

The US Dollar stands victorious at the end of another week, with the EUR/USD pair trading near a four-week low of 1.1742, while the USD retains its strength despite some discouraging American data released at the end of the week. The pair edged higher on Friday, after the United States Supreme Court ruled against President Donald Trump's tariffs, although the advance is not enough to change the latest USD flow.

Gold price edges higher to near $5,095 during the early Asian session on Monday. The precious metal extends the rally amid US President Donald Trump’s tariff threats and uncertainty, boosting safe-haven flows.

This week’s data delivered a familiar theme with an important twist. The U.S. economy continues to be shaped by powerful forces in high-tech and AI-related investment, but recent releases suggest the growth story may finally be broadening. At the same time, trade flows are moving in a less supportive direction, reminding us that not all parts of the economy are pulling in sync.
