The AUD/USD pair was in a tight range on Tuesday morning and was hovering near its lowest point since September 16. It has plunged by more than 3.20% from its highest level this year Stimulus Hopes
The AUD/USD exchange rate retreated after China published the latest trade numbers. According to the country's statistics agency, imports rose by 0.3% in September after rising by 0.5% in the previous month. The increase was lower than the median estimate of 0.9%.
Exports, on the other hand, rose by 2.4% on a year-on-year basis, lower than the median estimate of 6.0%. The increase was also lower than August's increase of 8.7%, while the trade surplus waned to $81.7 billion.
As a result, China's government announced measures to boost the economy. In a statement, the finance ministry said that it was prepared to deliver more stimulus, including by widening the budget deficit. Some of these funds will move towards the ailing property sector.

Analysts expect that these measures will boost the economy. In a note, analysts at Goldman Sachs upgraded the GDP forecast from 4.9% to 4.7%, and its 2025 estimate to 4.7%.
