The AUD/USD pair is oscillating around the immediate hurdle of 0.6300 in the Toyo session after a rebound move from a fresh two-year low at 0.6274. A rebound in the asset seems a dead cat bounce as the risk sentiment is extremely negative amid a weaker S&P500. The asset has displayed a five-day losing spell and is expected to remain on the tenterhooks ahead of the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) data.
Meanwhile, the US dollar index (DXY) has established firmly above 113.00 as investors are hiding behind the safe haven amid a risk-off market mood.

The event has escalated the fears of nuclear operations by Russia, which could damage the harmony in Europe to a broader extent.

The event has not displayed signs of exhaustion yet. Also, it is expected to improve to 6.5% from the prior release of 6.3%.
