Aussie outperforms after RBA surprise but lags during the American session. On Tuesday, the AUD/USD pair climbed higher due to the unexpected decision from the Reserve Bank of Australia . However, asworsened during the American session, the pair fell back from its weekly high below 0.6700.
The RBA increased the key interest rate by 25 basis points to 3.85%, surprising market participants who had expected no change. This move caused the Aussie to surge across the board, with AUD/USD hitting its highest level since April 21 at 0.6716. RBA's statement suggested that rates could continue to rise, andthey will do what is necessary to bring inflation back to target. The Statement on Monetary Policy on Friday will offer more clues about the future.

Looking ahead, on Wednesday, Australia will report its March Retail Sales with a 0.2% expected gain, along with the AiG Manufacturing for March and the S&P Global Services PMI for April. Additionally, the New Zealand Q1 Employment report will be relevant. In the US, the focus will be on the Federal Reserve's decision. The ADP private payroll numbers and the S&P Global Services PMI are also due.
