AUD/USD: at a strong resistance level

<p>Next week (May 5), the next meeting of the RBA will be held. As you know, in early April, the regular meeting of the RBA was held, following which the bank management decided to keep the current monetary policy unchanged. The key interest rate of the RBA was kept at a record low level of 0.25%, and the target level of yield on 3-year government bonds was also left at 0.25%. The decision to lower the rate and determine the current target level of government bond yields was made at the previous unscheduled meeting of the RBA on March 19. RBA predicts a significant slowdown in inflation in the 2nd quarter. </p>
