Upbeat China's Nov data dump is a positive development for the Australian Dollar.
Data from China released earlier today were as follows:
- November Industrial Production y/y 6.2% vs 6.1% expected and 6.1% last - November Urban Investment YTD y/y came at 8.3% vs 8.3% expectedand 8.3% last
- November Retail Sales y/y was 10.8% vs 10.1% expectedand 10.0% last
Aussie however, has remained relatively muted to upbeat Chinese data.
AUD/JPY is trading largely unchanged on the day, a narrow 36 pip range till now.
The pair is however, holding the break above channel top, and strong support is seen at 85.67 (5-DMA and channel top).
Break below 85.67 could see downside gain traction, test of 84 levels then likely.
