> The Australian and New Zealand dollars slid to multi-week lows as firm US data and a global bond selloff lifted the dollar and pushed long-term yields near 15-year highs. The Aussie fell to about 0.7025 after Australian unemployment rose to 4.6%, and markets priced high odds of further RBA and RBNZ hikes.
