Australian dollar hits two-year low--
http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/story/0,21985,24452428-5005961,00.html
HE Australian dollar has sunk to a two-year low amid global growth concerns and expectations of a bigger than usual interest rate cut tomorrow.
The domestic currency fell to $US0.7650 at 10.30am (AEDT), its lowest level since November 17, 2006.
It's also the Australian dollar's lowest point since the onset of the global credit crunch in mid-2007.
The local unit dropped to $US0.7676 in August 2007 in the early days of the credit crunch.
Bank of New Zealand currency strategist Danica Hampton predicted this morning the Australian dollar would hit $US0.7620 today if the currency broke through the $US0.7676 key level.
"The risk is to the downside,'' she said from Wellington this morning.
The political passage of the US government's $US700 billion ($906 billion) plan to buy toxic mortgage assets, over the weekend, failed to allay financial market fears about a global economic slowdown.
On Friday night, the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 157.47 points, or 1.5 per cent, to end at 10,325.38.
All 19 economists surveyed by AAP last week forecast a rate cut tomorrow, with eleven tipping a 50 basis point cut.
A half a percentage point rate cut would be the first of that magnitude since April, 2001, as the world economy slowed after the tech wreck.
The RBA board is due to meet tomorrow morning to consider the interest rate issue, with the outcome to be released later, at 2.30pm AEDT. |
