AUD/JPY MOVES BELOW 98.50 AS TRADERS ADOPT CAUTION DUE TO CHINA ECONOMIC WOES

· Views 25


  • AUD/JPY depreciates as risk aversion increases due to rising fears over the Chinese economy.
  • Traders await RBA Governor Michele Bullock’s speech to gather more insights into the central bank's policy stance.
  • Japan will allocate ¥989 billion to fund energy subsidies in response to rising energy costs.

AUD/JPY halts its four-day winning streak, trading around 98.40 during the European session on Tuesday. This downside of the AUD/JPY cross is attributed to rising risk aversion as traders adopt caution due to concerns mounting over China’s economic woes.

Traders assess July manufacturing PMI data from China, a key trading partner of Australia. Official figures indicated the sharpest contraction in factory activity in six months, while private survey readings suggested that the manufacturing sector had expanded for the seventh time this year.

Traders are now focusing on Australia's Q2 Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and July Trade Balance data, as well as an upcoming speech by Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) Governor Michele Bullock later in the week, to gather more insights into the central bank's hawkish stance on monetary policy.
