AUD to rise later in the coming months
“AUD/USD peaked at 0.68 on July 11 and fell to 0.6643 on Monday, back inside the 0.6575-0.6700 range seen between mid-May and early July”
“Apart from China’s uninspiring economy, the Australian Dollar (AUD) has been under pressure alongside commodities over the past week due to uncertainties over the US Presidential elections. For example, Copper fell 17% from the year’s high of USD505/lb.70 (May 21) to 420 on Monday.”
“However, US equities rallied in the overnight market after US President Joe Biden ended his re-election bid with Democrats uniting behind Vice President Kamala Harris as the party’s nomination to take on Donald Trump at the elections. A less one-sided race to the White House coupled with Fed cuts could weaken the USD and support the AUD later in the coming months.”
