The only notable mover overnight was AUD/GBP which retraced lower following weeks of negative sentiment surrounding the GBP and Brexit vote. AUD/GBP has now paired gains by about 3% from just below 0.6000 to where we are this morning just holding on to 0.5800.
AUD/USD and AUD/EUR remain around levels seen yesterday and the trend looks set to continue in the absence of any economic news or data today or this week. Stocks were mostly flat or fell overnight while commodity prices fell again excluding iron ore, which has continued a spectacular rebound from prices around US$40 a tonne to where we are this morning just on US$61 a tonne.
