周五，澳元攀升至0.64美元以上，从上一交易日的下跌中反弹，因为对美中贸易谈判的乐观情绪日益高涨，提振了全球情绪。中国宣布，在美国官员多次尝试进行外联活动后，正在评估贸易谈判的前景。本周早些时候，美国总统唐纳德·特朗普还建议与印度、日本和韩国达成潜在的贸易协议，同时对与中国达成协议表示乐观。在国内方面，数据显示，3月份澳大利亚零售额增长0.3%，略低于预期的0.4%。再加上核心通胀疲软，最新数据提振了市场对澳大利亚储备银行近期降息的预期。人们普遍预计澳大利亚储备银行将在5月份将现金利率下调25个基点至3.85%，市场预计到年底将进一步降至2.85%。

The Australian dollar climbed above $0.64 on Friday, rebounding from the previous session’s losses as growing optimism over US-China trade negotiations lifted global sentiment. China announced it is evaluating the prospect of trade talks following multiple outreach attempts by US officials. Earlier in the week, US President Donald Trump also suggested potential trade deals with India, Japan, and South Korea, while expressing optimism about an agreement with China. On the domestic front, data showed Australian retail sales rose 0.3% in March, slightly below expectations of 0.4%. Combined with softening core inflation, the latest figures bolstered market expectations of a near-term rate cut by the Reserve Bank of Australia. The RBA is widely anticipated to lower its cash rate by 25 basis points to 3.85% in May, with markets pricing in a further decline to 2.85% by year-end.
