The Australian Dollar (AUD) holds ground, aiming to extend its gains against the US Dollar (USD) on Wednesday. The strength of the AUD/USD pair is reinforced after the Reserve Bank of Australia's (RBA) August Meeting Minutes indicated that the cash rate may remain unchanged for an extended period.
The RBA Minutes also showed that the board had considered a rate hike earlier this month before ultimately deciding that maintaining current rates would better balance the risks. Additionally, RBA members agreed that a rate cut is unlikely in the near future.
The US Dollar (USD) attempts to halt its losing streak as traders turn cautious ahead of the release of the FOMC Minutes on Wednesday. Furthermore, traders await Fed Chair Jerome Powell's upcoming speech at Jackson Hole on Friday.
