AUD/USD bias held neutral on October 10, 2026
The Australian dollar extended weekly gains and edged higher amid modest US dollar weakness, as the US dollar retreated alongside bond yields amid an improved mood. Fed pause bets were offsetting hawkish rhetoric, with attention turning to upcoming US CPI, Q3 earnings and developments in China, where trade and prices were described as robust.
