Focus on AUDUSD today – 6th FEB 2024 

In this comprehensive analysis, Ultima Markets brings you an insightful breakdown of the AUDUSD for 6th February 2024. 

Key Takeaways 

• U.S. economy remains resilient: The US ISM Non-Manufacturing PMI rose to four-months high of 53.4 in January, slightly above expectations of 52. New orders and prices indexes hit their highest levels in almost a year. Strong economic data has all but eliminated the possibility of a rate cut in March while the chances for May have also diminished. However, market risk appetite declined after the fact. 
• Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) policy meeting: RBA will announce its interest rate decision and monetary policy statement later today. Since last December, policymakers have discussed whether to raise interest rates again due to current economic progression in Australia. Nonetheless, inflation has begun to decline gradually albeit overall economic momentum diminished slightly. Due to such progression, investors will be on the lookout for forward guidance from RBA to gather more signals.
