Amid diverging monetary policy paths between Australia and Japan, the AUD/JPY pair strengthened to trade above the 113.00 level, supported by a hawkish stance from the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA). According to reports, the pair maintains a definitive uptrend as long as it remains above its 100-day Simple Moving Average (SMA). This momentum is driven by market expectations of prolonged high interest rates in Australia to combat persistent inflationary pressures.
This rally reflects the Australian Dollar's strength against a Yen burdened by low yields, with AUD/JPY trading at multi-year highs. Compared to other currency pairs, the AUD shows robust performance against majors, while the Bank of Japan’s accommodative policy remains a weight on the Yen per market data. Analyst reports suggest that the interest rate differential continues to be the primary driver for capital flows toward the Australian currency.
