The Australian dollar was largely unchanged around $0.691, staying near an eleven-week low after a mixed inflation report did little to shift expectations for further interest rate hikes. Headline consumer prices fell 0.7% in May from the previous month, pulling annual inflation down to 4.0% from 4.2% and marking the slowest pace in three months. However, the trimmed mean inflation rose 0.4% on the month, above forecasts and lifted the annual core rate to 3.6%. After raising interest rates three times this year, the Reserve Bank left the cash rate unchanged this month but reiterated that it would not hesitate to tighten further if inflation remains above its 2.5% target. The mixed inflation figures have left markets divided, pricing roughly a 50% chance of another rate hike, with any move seen more likely later in the year rather than at the August meeting. Meanwhile, the Aussie dropped 1.2% in the previous session after a tech-driven global equity selloff triggered risk aversion.

The AUD/USD exchange rate fell to 0.6897 on June 24, 2026, down 0.28% from the previous session. Over the past month, the Australian Dollar has weakened 3.85%, but it's up by 5.77% over the last 12 months. Historically, the Australian Dollar reached an all time high of 1.49 in December of 1973.

Aussie Dollar Extends Decline to 11-Week Low
The Australian dollar slipped further below $0.70, hitting an eleven-week low as the US dollar continued to advance, while caution built ahead of domestic inflation and jobs data this week that could indicate whether the Reserve Bank has finished raising rates. Headline inflation is expected to pick up to 4.4% in May from 4.2% from a month earlier, while core measure likely edged up to 3.5% from 3.4%, both well above the central bank’s target. Deputy Governor Andrew Hauser is expected to speak about the inflation outlook after the CPI release. For the employment data, a rise of 25,000 net jobs for May is expected, while the unemployment rate likely fell to 4.4% after hitting a 4 1/2 -year high of 4.5% last month.
