澳洲2月CPI(消费者物价指数,用来衡量整体物价涨幅)同比从3.8%放缓至3.7%,仍高于澳洲央行(RBA)3%的目标。核心通胀指标“修剪均值CPI”(Trimmed mean CPI:剔除涨跌幅最极端项目后,更能反映长期通胀趋势)同比维持在3.3%;此前1月数据从3.4%下修至3.3%。
这组通胀数据是在中东冲突前采集;冲突已推高能源价格。RBA已把利率上调至4.1%(利率:央行影响贷款与存款成本的关键工具),而且是以接近的投票结果通过。
在美国方面,美联储(Fed)理事Stephen Miran表示,通胀压力没那么棘手,就业市场也转弱。他认为美联储今年应把利率下调至“中性水平”(既不刺激也不压制经济的利率区间)。
AUD/USD在0.6942附近交易。上方阻力(价格较难突破的区间)约在0.7000,其后是0.7080与0.7120。下方支撑(价格较难跌破的区间)约在0.6900,其后是0.6800。RSI(相对强弱指数:衡量涨跌动能的技术指标,常用0-100区间)从60回落,向40出头靠近。
