Weekly Gains of Aussie on Good US Economy

The Australian dollar rallied this week as optimism returned to the Forex market on the positive signs from the United States. The flow of bad news from Europe paused for a time, easing concerns about the sovereign debt crisis. Worries about Europe persisted in the first half of the week, weakening commodity currencies. The attempts of the European central bank to inject capital into the European banking systems through loans didn’t helped market sentiment at first. Later, […]
