The Aussie dollar has stabilised somewhat over the past 24 hours with the Aussie trading at near identical levels to this time yesterday morning. The only exception to that is Aussie/Kiwi which is up around 1%. Equities and commodities also performed quite well overnight. The strongest performer being the French CAC (up nearly 1.5%) as a result perhaps of optimism that the left leaning Macron will win the French Presidential Elections held this weekend.
