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, DBS senior FX strategist Philip Wee.
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.”

Nvidia slid 7.7% after hours while AMD and Broadcom rose — the AI trade changed hands, it didn't breakNvidia closed Wednesday at 173.73, up 2.87%, then fell as much as 8.1% to 159.44 after reports that its board was preparing for a possible leadership change. The same session, the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index rose 5.7% with all 30 components higher, CoreWeave jumped 24.7% on 168% revenue growth, and Micron added 11.9%. If AI demand were being repriced, AMD and Broadcom would not be bid. This is a governance discount on one name, and 204.54 — the 200-day average — is the level that settles it.
