AUD/USD - Calls Update

  • AUD/USD popped higher to 0.7275, a one-month peak, after a key level around 0.7250 finally gave way
     
  • Net M&A inflows seem to be supportive for AUD at the moment but this is - as always - hard to nail down
     
  • RBA governor Stevens reiterated in yesterday's speech that there is room to cut interest rates "if that actually helps." 
     
  • AUD still outperformed, this despite iron ore falling 1.9% to $43.89/tonne - a record low, the rise was definitely not driven by fundamentals
     
  • Also underpinning the the was some profit taking in the U.S. dollar in the lead-up to Thanksgiving holidays and a surprise drop in U.S. consumer confidence and rising global tension between Russia and Turkey 
     
  • AUD/USD trend is still lower. We would still go short on rallies. Recommend raising stops to 0.7320 for our previous call
