AUD/USD: Major bullish breakout of Aussie ahead of RBA
Australia’s hotter-than-expected inflation and the RBA’s hawkish stance have slashed expectations for rate cuts in 2026, pushing bond yield premiums over US Treasuries to multi-year highs. The widening spread is boosting demand for AUD assets and reinforcing medium-term strength in AUD/USD. Technicals stay bullish above 0.6605, supported by a major breakout, firm momentum signals, and an RSI rebound.
