Key Takeaways:

*Australia’s Q1 GDP grew just 0.2%, with inflation below target and labor market weakness emerging; unemployment seen rising to 4.3–4.5%.

*Trump’s “Liberation Day” tariffs have added global risk headwinds, pushing the RBA toward faster monetary easing.

*AUD at 2025 Highs: With a 25 bps RBA cut fully priced in, any surprise move or hawkish tone could fuel further AUD gains.

Market Summary:

The Australian economy finds itself navigating increasingly turbulent waters in 2025, with recent data revealing a concerning slowdown that has placed policymakers in a delicate position. First-quarter GDP growth decelerated to just 0.2%, undermined by weakening private sector activity and constrained public expenditure. While inflation has moderated from its earlier peaks, it continues to linger below the Reserve Bank of Australia’s target band, creating an unusual predicament where both growth and price stability concerns are mounting simultaneously.

The labor market, traditionally Australia’s economic stronghold, is beginning to show signs of fatigue. After years of remarkable resilience, unemployment is projected to climb toward 4.5% in coming quarters as job creation slows—a development that could further dampen consumer confidence and spending. These domestic challenges have been exacerbated by external pressures, particularly the ripple effects of sweeping U.S. tariff measures that have injected fresh uncertainty into global trade flows and commodity markets.

Against this backdrop, the Australian dollar has staged an unexpected rally, rebounding to approach its yearly highs despite the softening economic fundamentals. This apparent paradox reflects several converging factors: the currency’s attractive yield relative to other developed markets, cautious optimism about China’s economic stabilization, and a market that had become excessively pessimistic about Australia’s prospects.

All eyes now turn to tomorrow’s critical RBA policy decision, where the central bank must balance these competing narratives. While financial markets have fully priced in a 25 basis point rate cut, the greater significance lies in the accompanying guidance. The statement’s tone could prove decisive for the currency’s near-term trajectory—a hawkish tilt suggesting this may conclude the easing cycle could fuel further AUD strength, while a dovish emphasis on readiness for additional stimulus might trigger a reassessment of recent gains.

As Australia’s economic story enters this crucial chapter, the coming months will reveal whether current challenges represent a temporary soft patch or the beginning of a more persistent slowdown. Beyond tomorrow’s rate decision, subsequent labor market and inflation readings will provide critical evidence of whether the economy is finding a floor or facing deeper headwinds—factors that will ultimately determine whether the Australian dollar’s recent resilience can be sustained.

Technical Analysis 

EURAUD, H4

The EUR/AUD saw a false breakout below its support at 1.7735 before staging a swift recovery, signaling potential bullish intent. Currently, the pair is trading in a tight range between 1.7830 and 1.7900. A decisive breakout from this consolidation zone could provide a clearer directional signal, with an upside break reinforcing the bullish case.

Momentum indicators, however, remain mixed—the RSI is holding above the midline, suggesting mild upside bias, while the MACD is edging lower, tempering the bullish outlook. This divergence points to a neutral stance until a confirmed breakout occurs.

Resistance level: 1.7985, 1.8280

Support level: 1.7733, 1.7455
