The AUD sets new record highs against the GBP, has it peaked?
5:30 PM (NZT) The AUD again set new record highs against the Pound Sterling this week. The unchanged RBA cash rate decision from last week, couple with the better than expected employment numbers this week, mean the AUD should remain in demand against the GBP in the short term. The BOE monetary policy meeting minute release next week will be crucial. A split decision on the increase in QE from the BOE would be beneficial to the GBP, as it would decrease the likelihood of any further QE in the coming months. Headway from the current levels will be harder fought for the AUD, as its upside moment slows at these record levels.
