请教老妖,昨天aud/usd波动这么巨大,是为什么啊?是否意味着阶段顶部到了?
The Australian dollar opened lower today, after hitting another 23-year high overnight, as weakened US share market performances dampened appetite for high interest rate currencies.
At 7am, the Australian dollar was trading at $US0.8987/91, down from yesterday's close of 0.9048/53, to start the session below 90 US cents for the first time since Thursday.
Overnight, it traded between a low of $US0.8959 and a high of 0.9079 around 8pm - its highest level since May 3, 1984, when it ended at $US0.9323 on the New York session.
Macquarie Bank associate director of foreign exchange Joanne Masters said the Australian dollar soared to its highest level since 1984 early in the offshore session as the gold price shot up to a 28-year high of $759.90 an ounce.
Ms Masters said Treasurer Peter Costello's election-timed announcement of $34 billion in tax cuts over three years also boosted expectations of more Australian interest rate rises.
"The Kiwi and the sterling rallied but the Aussie got an extra lift ... from Costello's tax cuts," she said.
The Australian dollar then fell below 90 US cents as weaker performances on US equity markets battered demand for high interest rate currencies.
Ms Masters said the domestic currency was likely to trade between $US0.8960 and 0.9020 during today's local session as weaker performances on Asian share markets, taking their lead from the US, limited demand for high-yielding money.
The Australian dollar would also consolidate its recent gains above 90 US cents rather than racing to new highs.
"I think, for the Aussie, once you get to these lofty levels, it's not surprising to see it fall," Ms Masters said.
"It's almost unsustainable to rally constantly."
Ms Masters said the Australian dollar's gains also would be curtailed in coming days in the lead-up to a meeting of the G7 nations in Washington on October 19 - comprising the US, Japan, Germany, France, Britain, Italy and Canada.
The European nations are expected to raise the issue of US dollar weakness because a stronger euro has made it more difficult for exporters to sell their goods in foreign markets.
"I don't think you'll see the G7 act on it but the markets are wary," Ms Masters said. |
