Seven Reasons to Bet on a Stronger AUD/USD -- Market Talk

Dow Jones06-04

0158 GMT - CBA outlines seven reasons why AUD/USD is set to rise further this year and into 2025. The pair is already 5 U.S. cents above its cyclical low of 0.6170, with more upside looking locked in, says Joe Capurso, economist at CBA. AUD/USD looks undervalued as it trades close to 0.6700, while expected gentle cuts to the Fed funds rate will translate into a stronger U.S. economy and global economy, which will support the pair, he adds. Low volatility in global markets also tends to see support for AUD/USD, while supply chains in international markets have largely stabilized, so disruptions to the global economy are less, which bodes well for AUD/USD, he adds. Recent geopolitical flareups haven't really dented confidence in AUD/USD, and that should continue. AUD/USD short positions are also unwinding, Capurso notes.
