ATFX Market Outlook, 2019 September 30
Personal opinions today:
This week, the market will focus on the U.S. labour department's September non-farm payrolls, unemployment rate and average wages, which will take the pulse of the U.S. economy. Non-farm payrolls are expected to have risen to nearly 180,000 in September, with the unemployment rate flat and average wages rising. The market is watching the US private non-farm payrolls report on Wednesday, analyzing and evaluate the official non-farm payrolls data.
RBA rate decision tomorrow. The reserve bank of Australia is expected to cut its benchmark interest rate by 25 basis points from 1 to 0.75%, further challenging the lowest level in Australia's history.
Australia's economic data have been disappointing, with the Reserve Bank of Australia cutting interest rates twice this year by 25 basis points, or 50 basis points, in June and July. The past quarter has not been as good as Australia's economic data. Since July, the Australian dollar has been on a downward trend. Despite the RBA hawkish remarks in September, investment confidence back in the Australian dollar was once stable. Unfortunately, as the trade war between China and the us continues to affect Austral exports and the domestic economy continues to slow down, the RBA is expected to cut interest rates again.
