周五，澳元在上一交易日下跌0.5%后稳定在0.629美元左右，因为投资者应对了围绕美国总统唐纳德·特朗普关税计划的不确定性。在最新进展中，特朗普重申了他对全球贸易伙伴实施互惠关税的立场，该关税将于4月2日生效。本周早些时候，美国对进口钢铁和铝征收25%的关税，影响了价值约10亿美元的澳大利亚出口，澳元面临压力。尽管存在贸易担忧，澳大利亚总理安东尼·阿尔巴内塞排除了对美国征收反关税的可能性。相反，政府将继续寻求豁免，并警告称报复性措施可能会增加消费者的成本并推高通胀。与此同时，澳大利亚3月份对未来12个月的消费者通胀预期从2月份的4.6%降至3.6%，这表明国内经济的价格压力正在减弱。

The Australian dollar stabilized around $0.629 on Friday after losing half a percent in the previous session, as investors navigated uncertainties surrounding US President Donald Trump’s tariff plans. In the latest developments, Trump reaffirmed his stance on implementing reciprocal tariffs on global trading partners, set to take effect on April 2. The Aussie came under pressure earlier this week after the US imposed 25% tariffs on imported steel and aluminum, affecting about $1 billion worth of Australian exports. Despite trade concerns, Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese ruled out imposing counter-tariffs on the US. Instead, the government will continue to seek an exemption, warning that retaliatory measures could increase costs for consumers and drive inflation higher. Meanwhile, Australia’s consumer inflation expectations for the next 12 months fell to 3.6% in March, down from 4.6% in February, signaling waning price pressures in the domestic economy.
