Australian Dollar: Consolidation limits gains against US Dollar – UOB
United Overseas Bank strategists (UOB) Quek Ser Leang and Lee Sue Ann observe that AUD/USD has entered a short-term consolidation after recent gains, with intraday trade expected between 0.6995 and 0.7030.

Brown Brothers Harriman (BBH) strategist Elias Haddad describes the Japanese Yen (JPY) as leading gains and acting as an ultimate refuge currency, supported by hotter Consumer Price Index (CPI) and steady Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) data that back additional Bank of Japan (BoJ) hikes. However, with inflation still below BoJ projections and limited near-term hike odds, he expects USD/JPY to hold in a defined range unless risk-off intensifies.
