During yesterday’s trading session GBP/AUD traded within the range of 1.8029-1.8188 and closed at 1.8076.

Fundamental view

Annualized industrial output in the United Kingdom probably expanded 2.4% in March, following another 2.7% increase during the preceding month. In monthly terms, industrial production probably decreased 0.1% in March, after a 0.9% gain in the previous month. The index presents the change in the total inflation-adjusted value of production in sectors such as manufacturing, mining and energetics.

UK’s annualized manufacturing production, a short-term indicator which accounts for almost 80% of nation’s industrial output, probably expanded 2.9% in March. In February manufacturing output rose at an annualized pace of 3.8%. In monthly terms, production probably increased 0.3% during March. As it is a key component of country’s Gross Domestic Product, in case manufacturing production expanded more than projected in February, this would have a bullish effect on the sterling.

The Office for National Statistics (ONS) will release the official figures at 8:30 GMT.
