AUD/USD moving thinly near 0.7150 as traders await Thursday's jobs figures

0
0
· *Thin trading for the Aussie, which remains wrapped up under the 0.7150 level.*
· *Despite the USD's recent weakness, the AUD is unable to capitalize meaningfully ahead of Thursday's major employment report.*

The AUD/USD is trading flatly near 0.7140 after seeing little movement in Tuesday's action, ending the day barely ten pips up from where it started as broader markets keep their eyes locked elsewhere.

Data remains thin for the Aussie, which already saw little to no action on yesterday's Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) Meeting Minutes and China CPI/PPI figures, and the Antipodean major pair can be expected to continue treading water as US Dollar flows drive the major market themes.

The AUD is drastically under-represented on Wednesday's economic calendar, and the pair will remain exposed to overall swings in risk appetite, though the US FOMC's latest Minutes will be dropping later in the day at 18:00 GMT, which could give Greenback bidders something to trade about.

*AUD/USD levels to watch*

The AUD/USD is leaning into the bullish camp as flat trading sees the Aussie taking small steps upwards, or rather the Greenback downwards;  according to FXStreet's own Valeria Bednarik, "the pair offers a bullish stance in the short term, not far from a fresh 2-week high of 0.7150 reached in the American session.  The 4 hours chart for the pair shows that a bullish 20 SMA has been leading the way higher, but also that sellers have capped the intraday advance around a bearish 100 SMA. Technical indicators in the mentioned chart have bounced from their midlines, maintaining upward slides but below their previous weekly highs, indicating buyers are still cautious. (Thursday's employment) data could be a make it or break it for the pair, with a bullish continuation expected on a run through 0.7160, the 61.8% retracement of the latest daily slump."

Support levels: 0.7110 0.7085 0.7040   

Resistance levels: 0.7160 0.7195 0.7220 Reported by FXstreet.com 2 hours ago.

RBA Debelle: wages may not increase until unemployment falls further

0
0
Guy Debelle,  the Reserve Bank of Australia's (RBA) Deputy Governor, gave a targeted speech regarding Australia's labour market.

*Key highlights*

The Australian labour market is in pretty good shape, and Debelle expects employment to continue growing slightly above-trend for the next six months.

The Aussie vacancy rate remains at its highest relative to the labour force.

"Average" economic growth will gradually reduce the labour overhang, which should eventually to "gradual" inflation, wage increases.

Debelle notes that the unemployment rate could fall further than usual before wages finally begin to pick up, although there's a chance the unemployment rate could rapidly decline if the participation rate steadies.

The RBA can't see the economic drag from lower housing prices, effect is "unclear". Despite this, the RBA is still watching housing prices closely.

A lower AUD is almost certainly helping the domestic Aussie economy, but not a huge boost, and it would be helpful if the US Fed wound up pushing the AUD even lower via rate hikes. Reported by FXstreet.com 2 hours ago.

Great Boulder Resources' results supporting its hypothesis at the Yamarna Belt

Stefan Murphy, managing director of Great Boulder Resources Ltd (ASX:GBR) tells Proactive Investors the latest on the Yamarna copper-nickel-cobalt project in Western Australia's Eastern Goldfields, sharing drilling updates on Mt Venn and the Eastern Mafic Complex. "We've been able to prove that the Eastern Mafic is in fact a highly mineralised system. One of the key things that we were trying to prove with this first round of drilling is that we are looking at the more nickel-rich part of the system as opposed to the later-stage copper-rich part over at Mt Venn. That was the hypothesis that we were always working towards and what we've been able to see at the Eastern Mafic is not only are we finding the higher nickel grades there, but we're also finding the higher nickel tenor," says Murphy.

Bryah Resources encounters gold zones up to 27 metres thick at Bryah Basin

Bryah Resources Ltd (ASX:BYH) has returned from a trading halt after receiving broad gold hits in drilling at the Windalah prospect of the Bryah Basin project in central Western Australia. Thick zones of gold mineralisation of up to 27 metres were recorded in 3-metre composite samples in four reverse circulation (RC) drill holes completed in August. READ: Bryah Resources expands exploration focus beyond copper-gold to manganese The aim of the program was to test up to six conductors identified by recent airborne Versatile Time-Domain Electromagnetic (VTEM) and ground Moving Loop Electromagnetic (MLEM) surveys. Managing director Neil Marston said, “Today we have announced encouraging gold mineralisation has been recorded at the Windalah prospect, in the Bryah Basin. “This area was identified earlier this year in airborne and ground electromagnetic survey work as having potential for VMS systems.” READ: Bryah Resources expands exploration focus beyond copper-gold to manganese Results include: 27 metres at 0.34 g/t gold from 18 metres; 27 metres at 1.43 g/t from 132 metres, including 3 metres at 4.16 g/t from 135 metres and 3 metres at 6.29 g/t from 144 metres; 21 metres at 1.21 g/t from 66 metres, including 6 metres at 3.52 g/t from 78 metres; 12 metres at 0.71 g/t from 21 metres and 9 metres at 0.46 g/t from 42 metres; and 21 metres at 0.14 g/t from 30 metres. Marston said, “Our exploration strategy, which is centred on a systematic approach to target generation, is now proving its merit. “With this initial success, we are more confident about further deep drilling in this area as we believe the Windalah prospect has great potential for a future copper-gold discovery.” Significant pyrite-chlorite plus sericite alteration zone was observed and the gold mineralisation appears open along strike and down dip. READ: Bryah Resources expands exploration focus beyond copper-gold to manganese Follow-up activities before the next round of drilling at Windalah prospect are: Completion of laboratory analyses and reporting; Down Hole Electromagnetic (DHEM) survey of cased holes; and Geological, geochemical and geophysical interpretation and 3D modelling. Heritage surveys and Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety Program of Works approvals will be required for the next round of drilling. At the Jupiter prospect, 4 kilometres southwest of the Horseshoe Lights copper-gold mine, a drilling program encountered difficult ground conditions and was wound up after seven holes. Despite the conditions, wet sample recovery and lack of significant gold or copper being recorded, the geology intersected was highly encouraging with zones of propylitic alteration with strong chlorite, sericite and epidote observed. Follow-up diamond drilling appears warranted as part of future exploration to fully test this conductive area. Sixteen holes for 1,361 metres have been drilled to test EM conductors identified at Mars 2, Mars 3, Mars 4 and Peak Hill 1. Laboratory results for these holes are yet to be received.

US Cracks Down On Drug Cartel Deemed One Of Most Dangerous Groups

US Cracks Down On Drug Cartel Deemed One Of Most Dangerous Groups Watch VideoThe U.S. federal government is making moves to dismantle a drug cartel it calls one of the largest and most dangerous operating out of Mexico. 

On Tuesday, the Justice, Treasury and State departments announced they're teaming up to target the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, or CJNG.

The DOJ unsealed indictments against 15 people it believes are members of the cartel. They're accused of conspiring to import drugs into the U.S. and launder millions of dollars. 

A State Department reward for information leading to the arrest of the group's alleged leader was also doubled to $10 million, and the Treasury Department is taking steps to cut off the group's financial supply. 

Attorney General Jeff Sessions says dismantling the cartel is a top priority. 

"We consider this cartel, New Jalisco, to be one of the five most dangerous trans-national criminal organizations on the face of the earth," he said. "We believe that they traffic at least five tons of cocaine and five tons of methamphetamine into the United States every month. We also believe they are responsible for operating more than 100 methamphetamine labs in Mexico." 

Earlier this week, Sessions announced a new federal task force to tackle transnational organized crime. CJNG is one of the groups it plans to focus on. 

According to the DEA, the cartel "exerts influence" in about 75 percent of Mexican states and is expanding into the U.S., Europe, Asia and Australia.

The Fullerton Hotel Sydney set to debut at 1 Martin Place in October 2019 *Hotel opening marks conversion from The Westin Sydney*

SINGAPORE, Oct. 18, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- The Fullerton Hotels and Resorts has today announced that as of 18 October 2019, The Fullerton Hotels and Resorts will be responsible for the management of the hotel located at 1 Martin Place, currently The Westin Sydney.  The hotel will be re-branded *The Fullerton Hotel Sydney*. 1 Martin Place forms the southern face of Martin Place, a bustling pedestrian boulevard and public gathering place located in the civic heart of Sydney's CBD.

The Fullerton Hotels and Resorts presently owns and operates two award-winning hotels in Singapore: The Fullerton Hotel Singapore (opened in 2001) and The Fullerton Bay Hotel Singapore (opened in 2010). Both hotels anchor the historic and cultural Fullerton Heritage precinct located in Marina Bay, the heart of Singapore's city centre. The Fullerton Hotel Sydney, when open in October 2019, will mark the company's first international expansion.

Built in 1928, The Fullerton Hotel Singapore's building was previously home to the country's General Post Office (GPO) and several other important government departments. In recognition of the building's significance, and subsequent heritage conversion efforts, it was gazetted as Singapore's 71st National Monument in December 2015. This is the highest form of national recognition in Singapore and the equivalent of a listing on the National Heritage List in Australia.

The Fullerton Hotel Sydney will be located within the historic Sydney GPO Building, which was completed in 1891.

"We are delighted to have the opportunity to present The Fullerton Hotels and Resorts' award-winning style of hospitality and hotel to Australia," said Cavaliere Giovanni Viterale, General Manager of The Fullerton Hotel Singapore.

"The Fullerton Hotel Sydney will become a sister hotel to The Fullerton Hotel Singapore, both of which share a similar rich history as former GPOs. We strive to deliver a luxury hotel that can further contribute to Sydney's growth as an international tourist destination and showcase the beauty and heritage of the original building to a wider audience, both nationally and globally."

*New hotel website set to launch*

While hotel operations will remain very much 'business as usual', The Fullerton Hotel Sydney's website https://www.the-fullerton-hotel-sydney.com will go live on 18 October 2018.

*Facade cleaning and remediation project earmarked for early 2019*

Another key project, scheduled to commence early in the new year, is the remediation and repair of the hotel's facade.

"As dedicated custodians of the building, and as part of our commitment to the community, this project has been designed to restore the beauty of the façade and will be carried out in line with the Heritage Management Plan and safety regulations," explained Cavaliere Giovanni.

Sean Hunt, Area Vice President, Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific, Marriott International said, "Marriott International has managed The Westin Sydney at 1 Martin Place for over 20 years and we would like to thank all of our colleagues at the hotel for their continued support, hard work and dedication to its success."
