Despite today's strengthening of the US dollar against other currencies, competitors, with AUD / USD continues to hold the position conquered yesterday. After the release yesterday of strong data on employment and unemployment in Australia in October, with AUD / USD rose sharply. The unemployment rate in October fell to 5.9% against 6.2% in the previous month. The number of jobs in October increased significantly with almost full employment of these places and exceeded economists' forecasts in almost four times (58 600 to 15 000 to the forecast). Such strong data even caused distrust among some economists and traders expect that the labor market data for November, which will be released in December, still show deterioration. However, yesterday, the Australian dollar gained more than 1% against the US dollar.

A little later came yesterday from China next portion of negativity. The volume of new loans in China in October fell sharply, reaching 513.6 billion yuan against 1.05 trillion yuan in September, indicating weak demand and a large number of defaults of loans granted earlier. To speed up the Chinese economy seems to require further measures of fiscal policy easing and economic conditions.

China, as a close trading partner of Australia and the Australian buyer of raw materials, is showing clear signs of an economic slowdown and weakening inflation and domestic demand, in spite of the efforts made by the authorities of the country.

According to published data earlier in the week, the index of producer prices fell for the year by 5.9%. Together with the decline in exports in October (-6.9%) greatly reduced imports (-18.8%) in China, including Australian goods.

According to RBA, the national currency should be cheaper because of orientation of the country's economy on exports, primarily raw materials for the Chinese market. As repeatedly stated by the head of the RBA Glenn Stevens, the country needs a soft monetary policy.

Given the slowdown in the Chinese economy as the most important trade and economic partner of Australia, almost zero inflation in the country, the decline in global commodity prices, slowing economic growth and the reduction of investment in the economy, the RBA is very close to a decision to reduce interest rates in Australia. The next meeting of the RBA on the issue will be held December 1.

From the news today are waiting for data from the US, go to 15:30 (GMT + 2) (data on retail sales for October. The forecast of 0.3% against 0.1% in September) and at 17:00, when the index of consumer published confidence from the Reuters / Michigan in November (forecast 91.5 against 90 in October).

The US dollar may strengthen the market in the profit and confirming predictions.
