The Australian dollar slipped below US$0.66 after stronger-than-expected US jobs data lifted Treasury yields and the dollar. Traders were positioned ahead of Australia's Q4 CPI release and the Fed policy decision, with the AUD expected to trade between US$0.65 and US$0.67.
Currency moves are driven by rate expectations in the US and Australia, and a firmer dollar generally weighs on dollar-denominated commodity prices. The effect on feed markets is modest for this range-bound pattern.
