The Australian Dollar (AUD) remains steady following the release of the Monthly Consumer Price Index (CPI) on Wednesday. However, the AUD/USD pair receives downward pressure as the US Dollar (USD) recovers its recent losses from the previous session.
Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) reported that the Monthly Consumer Price Index jumped by 2.8% year-over-year in July, following a 1.9% increase reported in June. The market consensus was for 2.3% growth in the reported period. Meanwhile, the Australian Construction Work Done improved to 3% in the second quarter, against the 0.8% expected.
Traders remain cautious following US President Donald Trump's warning of imposing a 200% tariff on Chinese goods if Beijing refuses to supply magnets to the United States (US), per Reuters. It is worth noting that any change in the Chinese economy could influence AUD as China and Australia are close trading partners.
