The AUD/USD pair continued its strong downward trend last week, reaching its lowest point since May 5. It dropped to 0.7150, much lower than the year-to-date high of 0.7278. This retreat may continue ahead of the upcoming Federal Reserve minutes and the Australian jobs report.
Markets saw a firm resumption of risk-off sentiment towards the end of last week on rising yields, an advancing US Dollar, and the prospect of imminent renewed military clashes between the USA and Iran.
