Australian dollar jumps broadly today after RBA kept monetary policies unchanged as widely expected. Aussie is additionally helped by the strong rally in US stocks overnight, even though the rise in Asia markets is relatively muted. Also, China, the origin of the coronavirus pandemic, is set to end the lockdown of Wuhan. New Zealand Dollar follows Aussie closely as the second weakest. Dollar is currently the worst performing one as safe haven flows reverse. Swiss Franc and Euro are the next weakest. Technically, Dollar's rebound could have ended and it's probably starting the third leg of near term correction. 1.0902 minor resistance in EUR/USD and 0.9686 minor support in USD/CHF will be watched for signs of Dollar weakness. For this down leg in the greenback, AUD/USD will likely rise through 0.6213 temporary top while USD/CAD will likely drops through 1.3920 temporary low. In Asia, currently, Nikkei is up 0.58%. Hong Kong HSI is up 0.28%. China Shanghai SSE is up 1.74%. Singapore Strait Times is up 1.40%. Japan 10-year JGB yield is up 0.0019 at 0.006. Overnight, DOW rose 7.73%. S&P 500 rose 7.03%. NASDAQ rose 7.33%. 10-year yield rose 0.089 to 0.676. |
