DislikedI agree this pair is bullish long term, but I think we will see a little pullback here. Not being able to close above 0.8260 was a sign for me to short.Ignored
QuoteDislikedTTN ANALYSIS: LOW AUSSIE PPI DATA DOES NOT NECESSARILY MEAN LOWER CPI
- Historically there is a low correlation between Aussie PPI and Aussie CPI
- Aussie firms are likely to remain confident that they can keep prices at current elevated levels given the strong labor market and strong housing market: (Repeat) 04/16 (AU) Q1 NAB Business Conditions: unchanged from Q4 at 17. A rise in the employment component of the index offset declines in the sales and profitability components. Expectations for the current quarter rose by a point to 20, while the outlook for the yr was up 2 points to 34. (The improvement in the outlook component seems to confirm that Aussie firms remain confident that they can sustain or possibly improve margins)
- Analyst commentary: "I guess the critical question is how much of the low PPI would feed through to consumers and our view is probably not much given how strong the labor market is and strength in the housing market." (Stephen Halmarick at Citi)<AUD/USD AUD/JPY>

The AUD/USD opened at 0.8347 in NY having been caught in a range around 0.8340-60 in overnight trading.

AUD/USD triggered stops above 0.8360, rising to 0.8370/75 before being capped by offers with option defense of 0.8400 still eyed. AUD/JPY broke above the 98.80-99.20 range that contained overnight dealings, also fuelling stops but stalling just ahead of 99.50, with more stops eyed above 99.50. Concerns by Fed"s Mishkin on U.S. business investment, which mirrored recent comments by Plosser and in the FOMC minutes took US bond yields off session highs, also lifting the AUD.
However, a combination of factors is underpinning the AUD with fresh issuance totaling $A1.350 bln in four tranches from Swiss Re and HBOS was seen AUD support. Gold and copper prices climbed and the Baltic Dry Index is at fresh highs, and highest since December, also offering support. Finally, anticipated M&A flows for Australia are seen over $50 mln now, also AUD supportive. (rs)/rd
