AUD/USD fell from resistance by some 1% on Friday with the US Dollar moving up from a one-year low as measured by the DXY index as traders derisked on inflation concerns. AUD/USD dropped between a high of 0.6805 and a low of 0.6695.  

It's a mixed bag of sentiment out there with US data disappointing yet hawks and US Dollar bulls finding elements from within to support a hawkish narrative surrounding the Federal Reserve. Fed´s Governor Christopher Waller said on Friday that despite a year of aggressive rate increases, US central bankers "haven't made much progress" in returning inflation to their 2% target and need to move rates higher still.

Additionally, March Retail Sales components were not as weak as some economists had feared. Core retail sales, which correspond most closely with the consumer spending component of gross domestic product, slipped 0.3% last month. However, despite March's fall, the gains in January and February put consumer spending firmly on track to accelerate in the first quarter. This led to the greenback bouncing back to life with the DXY adding 0.57% on the day at 101.53, after falling to 100.78, the lowest since last April.
