The AUD/USD pair trades on a stronger note around 0.6460 during the early Asian session on Monday.

AUD/USD trades with mild gains near 0.6460 in Monday’s early Asian session. Fed Chair Powell downplayed the need for aggressive rate cuts, citing economic strength. The hawkish RBA might cap the downside for the pair. However, the upside for the pair might be limited amid the cautious remarks from the Federal Reserve officials and strong US economic data, which boost the US Dollar broadly.

This influences the level of interest rates in the economy as a whole. The main goal of the RBA is to maintain a stable inflation rate of 2-3% by adjusting interest rates up or down. Relatively high interest rates compared to other major central banks support the AUD, and the opposite for relatively low. The RBA can also use quantitative easing and tightening to influence credit conditions, with the former AUD-negative and the latter AUD-positive.
