Now come on plumber I was first to report this today as well you know, and as a chippy I am a much higher authority than a plumber.

Oh god don't you know anything. This is why (I'll keep it simple)
:lecture: :lecture:
THE dollar continued to slide lower as a resilient US currency weighed on it, losing a further half US cent by the close of today's business.

At 1700 AEST the dollar was trading at $US0.6522/27 compared with yesterday's close of 0.6587/92.
It has shed US1.25c over the past two days.
The currency was being buffeted by technical manoeuvres, MMS International strategist Glen Bull said.
He said the US dollar had strengthened overnight and the dollar fell to a low of $US0.6512.
The currency hit this low again during the local session as traders tried to trigger stops loss sell orders at $US0.6510.
"There's good buying down there and those stops were protected but I think they'll give out in offshore trade," Mr Bull said.
He said the high reached today was $US0.6540, the same level the unit had failed to breach in yesterday's trading.
"The correction lower has further to run yet," he said.
"There's more upside for the US dollar so Aussie is still heading lower for the time being.
"It rewrote the overnight low but it's looking heavy and exposed to the downside as we head into European trade."
Data on the day reaffirmed the relatively strong local economy and further reduced calls for a rate cut next week when the Reserve Bank board meets but the currency market's attention was fully focussed on the US dollar's performance.
The Australian Bureau of Statistics reported June retail sales rose a robust 1.1 per cent, seasonally adjusted, while the Reserve Bank of Australia said that private sector credit, particularly housing lending, continued to rise sharply.
Private sector credit rose 1.3 per cent in June, adjusted, while housing credit was up 1.8 per cent.
"We think the charts continue to be the best signposts for currency markets at the moment," National Australia Bank head of market strategy Greg McKenna said.
And he also said the technical picture indicated the Australian dollar would fall further, possibly making a full retracement of its drop 10 days ago to around $US0.6440.
At 1600 AEST the Reserve Bank of Australia Trade Weighted Index was at 58.3 points from 58.8 at yesterday's close
Now really if anyone can work this out let me know

Thanks for your insight H.Garrett. But have you really considered all the facts.

With lacklustre performances on the stockmarket and low yields in the bond market, hedge funds and traders have been hunting for yields. This has resulted in squaring of carry trades and could lead to corrections in the AUD.

With the AUD currency market being closley correlated to gold and commodities which in turn tend to rise in times of global uncertainty there has been much rallying in recent times.

However, at the moment with global equity markets rallying and increased Japanese repatriation there could be a correction in sight.

Please feel free to up date me further.

Regards,
Chippy

Thing is,Chippers, if you were pushing 70 and your two boys had just been killed and your country was obviously dead set against you and your evil ways and those Yanks were homing in: would you try very hard to avoid the tablets/ Scotch outcome. I reckon we've got another suicide coming here, effect on the USD will be positive.

Some experts believe the Aus interest rate may be cut tomorrow.
If it does get cut then the $AU will drop. (in value)
HOPEFULLY

I did think that but the home we are renting is bigger that the hovel I have here but thanks for the advice I shall look at smaller homes to buy if I can find one.
The way the rubber dollar is bouncing up and the housing market is rising in Australia you should see if your dreams are not turning to dust.
