  • Data released earlier today showed China’s April industrial production rose 6.5% y/y in April, missing the estimate of 7.1%. 
     
  • China's retail sales jumped 10.7%, beating the estimate of 10.7%. Urban investment growth dropped to 8.9% from 9.2%.
     
  • AUD/USD has been extending gains from 4-month lows at 0.7328, is currently holding above 5-DMA.
