# Australian Dollar tumbles as AUD/USD eyes RBA after hitting multi-week low

> The Australian dollar fell to about 0.6230 against the US dollar on Monday, its lowest in over three weeks. The move followed a stronger US dollar, with the DXY near 104.40, amid risk aversion and tariff fears ahead of the April 2 US reciprocal tariff announcement. Traders were also awaiting the RBA decision on Tuesday.
