Comments from Luci Ellis, head of the RBA’s Financial Stability Department:

  • There is mounting evidence that near-record-low interest rates are starting to boost the economy
  • House prices and loan growth increasing

AUD/USD has crawled higher overnight after the sell-off precipitated by the worse than expected China PMI, recovering all the lost ground. Sellers are clustered around 1.0270, with bids 1.0200/20 still. I’ll be back with more levels soon.
