Bullish AUD/USD currency pair is still accompanying to date. However, the prices have been corrected from new highs in 34-months. More precisely is at the number 0.77774. The pair closed global trading on Tuesday with a gain of about 1.2%.

This means the profit that they got is about 90 pips. As Wednesday's Asian Session got underway, the Aussie dollar weakened back from previous highs. However, the currency remained in a buy offer above the figure of 0.7750.

The position is also still above the highest levels that occurred on December 31 and January 4. According to the data, the figure is just above 0.7740 for now. The AUD's rise was boosted on Tuesday by certain behaviors on global markets 

Based on the information, many investors and market participants are raising their bets on inflation in 2021. It is also beyond. Such actions have often occurred before so that many parties can already guess about the existing market conditions 

Reports of Various Returns

Tuesday's price action is typical of market bets on a higher inflation situation (in the US) in the coming months and years. This year seems brings so many great things. Nominal U.S. bond yields reported substantial increases. A lot of sources point it out.

In addition, the nominal yield curve is experiencing different things. That is just like what others predicted. The curve suffered a substantial decline. Elsewhere, U.S. yields in the 10-year period reportedly rose to 0.955%. It could even be even higher.

Therefore, many traders notice that the movement will be above 1.0%. If so, there was an increase of 3.8 bps on the day while the 30-year yield rose by 4.8 bps to 1.704%. The movement is still volatile now in the market.

What About the Data Spreads

In addition to the above information, many parties are also very curious about the condition and spread data. You need to know that the spread of 2s10s is up as much as 3bps. This means the figure to 83.2bps and the 5s30s spread rising to 134.6bps.

That is the highest since 2016. As a reminder, higher inflation expectations can reduce the value of bonds. Such conditions will clearly drive yields. Furthermore, bonds with longer periods of time will be more exposed to changes in inflation expectations.

Despite gains in nominal yields, the share of U.S. real data remains near its record low for several months. From the note, the yield on the 10-year U.S. Tip (real data on 10-year U.S. bonds) remains near a record low of -1.08%.

The widening divergence between nominal and us real yields has caused inflation expectations to break even. According to the data, inflation expectations break even in a 10-year period. This is seen from the difference between nominal and real 10-year U.S. bond yields.

Inflation Expectations Rise

As previously informed, inflation expectations are now rising again above 2.0%. This means it remains at its highest level since Q4 in 2018. Bets on inflation are seen not only in the U.S. bond market but also in global commodity markets at the moment.

This is primarily for commodities that are offered thoroughly. Currencies that depend on the export of commodities such as the AUD will benefit significantly. This is certainly if the inflation condition of related commodity prices continues to occur in the future.

While mass vaccination is taking place in various countries today, various kinds of parties in major global markets and traders are betting on a strong recovery. Particularly in global economic and trade conditions in the second half of 2021.

This update could even go ahead against the backdrop of unprecedented levels of fiscal and monetary stimulus. That was especially in 2020. Appreciation in commodity prices that is also due to strength such as the AUD seems to be continuing.
