USD/JPY bulls pause after hawkish Fed-inspired rally to nearly two-year high

USD/JPY is seen consolidating below its highest level since July 2024, touched the previous day, with intervention fears lending support to the Japanese Yen and capping the upside amid a modest US Dollar downtick.

AUD/USD benefits from softer USD as US-Iran deal counters Fed's hawkish tilt

AUD/USD edges higher during the Asian session on Thursday as the US Dollar retreats from its highest level since late March, touched in reaction to the Fed's hawkish tilt the previous day.

This offers some support to the bullion, though the overnight failure near the 200-day SMA warrants caution for bulls.

Why a hawkish RBA is no longer enough to lift the Australian Dollar

The Reserve Bank of Australia delivered more than what markets expected: a hawkish hold that should have supported the Aussie. But markets widely ignored it, focusing instead on slowing economic growth and proving that central bank messaging alone isn’t always enough to drive currencies.
