AUD/NZD: Bullish en route towards a 10-year high at 1.1470 with a less dovish RBA
The RBA is expected to hold rates at 3.6% today after August’s third cut this year, as Australia’s labour market stays tight and CPI rose to 3% y/y in August, its highest since July 2024. In contrast, New Zealand faces rising unemployment at 5.2%, fueling expectations of a more dovish RBNZ. Widening AU–NZ yield spreads continue to support AUD/NZD strength, with the pair near a three-year high at 1.1390 and eyeing resistance at 1.1470.

SPX 500: Three-day sell-off reached 20-day moving average, a tipping point for a bullish reversal
The US SPX 500 CFD Index retreated 1.9% from its 6,710 peak but held near its 20-day moving average, a key support level. Despite concerns over mega-cap valuations and reduced Fed cut odds, the broader uptrend remains intact. A rebound above 6,635 could confirm a bullish reversal, targeting 6,670/6,745, while failure to hold 6,560 risks deeper declines toward 6,460.
