The AUD/USD pair gathers strength to near 0.7055 during the Asian trading hours on Thursday. The Australian Dollar edges higher against the US Dollar as hotter inflation data bolsters expectations of Reserve Bank of Australia rate hikes. The US September Personal Consumption Expenditures inflation report will be in the spotlight later on Thursday.
USD/JPY attracts some dip-buyers during the Asian session on Thursday, climbing back above 158.00 as the US Dollar reverses part of the post-FOMC pullback from a two-week high. Bulls, however, await key US macro data – the Advance Q3 GDP and the PCE Price Index – before positioning for further gains. Focus will then shift to the crucial BoJ policy update on Friday amid firming expectations for a December rate hike.
Gold leaves behind the recent three-day positive streak and faces renewed selling pressure near the $4,000 mark per troy ounce on Thursday. The precious metal’s daily decline comes amid marginal gains in the US Dollar and mixed US Treasury yields, while crude oil prices remain on the back foot.
Ripple is down over 2% on Thursday, extending losses below $1.30 and capped below crucial moving averages. Solana drops 2% so far, testing its 200-day EMA and the $100 psychological level amid mounting selling pressure.
Having hiked rates by 25bp to 1.25% in September, the central messages from the BoJ were largely similar; upside price risks remained, real interest rates were still negative and further policy rate hikes should be expected.
