Day Ahead
Today, the focus will be on the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) for June. Following a favorable reading in May, the consensus expects the core MoM figure to come in at +0.2%. This would support continued disinflation and likely be received positively by the markets. Currency pairs, particularly AUD/USD, are expected to remain in a holding pattern, with significant activity around the 0.6750 resistance and 0.6650/80 support levels.
