Nothing much in the way of data due on Monday or Tuesday this week from Australia, but from Wednesday:

Wednesday

  • Private sector credit data for March

Thursday

  • AIG Performance of manufacturing index (manufacturing PMI) for April
  • Trade price indexes for Q1
  • RBA index of commodity prices for April

Friday

  • Q1 PPI

I’ll have more on these as the days roll in. The big even on the horizon for the AUD is the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) meeting and announcement on May 6.
