Aussie kicks off the week on soft note ahead of key data.
Retail Sales and Inflation figures will guide market expectations.
Economic concerns over China limit the Aussie’s upside.
The AUD saw a further decline against the USD on Monday as AUD/USD fell to 0.6545. Despite the expectations of a future rate hike by the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA), issues with the local economy and Chinese economic woes persist, preventing any significant upward movement.
As the Australian economy shows signs of weakness, the persistent high inflation has prompted the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) to delay rate cuts. As per the current forecasts, the RBA stands to be among the last G10 nations to introduce a rate cut, potentially extending the gains of the AUD, but the economic concerns also push the currency down.
