Positive data from Australia and China boosted the pair, while the US dollar weakened despite better-than-expected data. Yesterday, Australia reported higher-than-expected employment change and a stable unemployment rate.

Today, China reported a lower-than-expected unemployment rate, higher than higher-than-expected retail sales and industrial production. These data show that the two economies are recovering from the pandemic.

Later today, we will see some data from the US, such as consumer sentiment, industrial production, capacity utilization, and manufacturing index. These data could affect the pair’s direction. If the US data is weak, the pair could resume its rise.
