The Australian Dollar has gained over 6% since the start of the year, making it the best performer among G10 currencies. Market expectations for the Reserve Bank of Australia to raise interest rates have increased, with a probability of over 60% for a hike next Tuesday.

"One reason for this is that the market now expects the Reserve Bank of Australia to raise interest rates as early as next Tuesday, with a probability of over 60%."
