Goldman Sachs expects the Australian dollar to fall on strong US jobs data, after US unemployment fell to 3.7% in November. The analysis argues the US economy will outperform consensus and that markets are pricing too many early rate cuts.
A firmer US dollar outlook would pressure dollar-denominated commodity prices and reduce the appeal of Australian-linked trade, so the view matters for feed price direction if it proves correct.
