AUD/USD remains vulnerable near 26-month low amid bullish USD
AUD/USD holds steady above the 0.6200 mark on Friday, though it remains close to its lowest level since October 2022 touched the previous day. The USD hovers near a two-year top on the back of the Fed's hawkish signal and a weaker risk tone. Furthermore, the RBA's dovish shift, concerns about China's economic recovery and trade war fears undermine the Aussie.
USD/JPY advances to a five-week high, around 158.00 neighborhood
USD/JPY hit a five-month top on Friday in the wake of the Fed's hawkish outlook and the BoJ's decision to keep interest rates steady. Bulls largely shrugged off data showing that Japan's National CPI rose in November, which bodes well for an additional interest rate hike by the BoJ.
Gold price oscillates in a range below $2,600 amid mixed cues
Gold price consolidates below the $2,600 mark following the previous day's good two-way price move and remains close to over a one-month low. The Fed signaled a cautious path of policy easing next year, which remains supportive of elevated US bond yields and assists the USD in standing firm near a two-year high.
Bitcoin's trajectory shows similarities with previous cycles as long-term holders book profits of $2.1 billion

Bank of England stays on hold, but a dovish front is building
Bank of England rates were maintained at 4.75% today, in line with expectations. However, the 6-3 vote split sent a moderately dovish signal to markets, prompting some dovish repricing and a weaker pound. We remain more dovish than market pricing for 2025.
