AUD/USD rebound halts at 0.6425 and keeps the bearish trend intact

• Australian Dollar recovery has met resistance at 0.6435, and a steady USD is weighing on Aussie's upside attempts.
• Strong Australian employment figures accelerated AUD's recovery earlier today.
• US PPI and Jobless claims data is expected to reiterate the US economic exceptionalism and support the Dollar.
   

The Australian Dollar accelerated its rebound from year-to-date lows following stronger-than-expected Australian employment data seen earlier today. The pair, however, has met resistance at 0.6430. which keeps the broader negative trend intact.

Australian employment showed a net increase of 36.6K in November, well above the 25K forecasted by the market and also above the downwardly revised 12.1K in October.

The Unemployment Rate has posted another positive surprise, with a decline to 3.9%, the lowest level since March against market expectations of an increase to 4.2%. The jobless rate had remained steady at 4.1% since last summer.

The US Dollar remains firm on positive US data

These figures have offset the impact of Tuesday’s dovish-tilted RBA monetary policy statement but, so far, are showing insufficient to counter the pair’s bearish trend.

The US Dollar Index, which measures the Greenback against the six most traded currencies, remains steady near two-week highs, supported by higher US yields.

US consumer inflation accelerated in November at its fastest rate in seven months. Later today, US Producer Prices Index and Jobless Claims data are expected to endorse the US exceptionalism rhetoric.
