But all of the banks are the same, they're all as bad as eachother.

Re: Exchange rate AUD Vs GBP £1 buys $1.83

For AUD it is more about China and the Yuan, and for GBP it is more about the USA and the USD. Other factors also come into the mix of course but any outcome is virtually impossible to predict.

Re: Exchange rate AUD Vs GBP £1 buys $1.83

Yes they were strong words. Good point about currencies. I have some residual pounds remaining after the purchase of our house in Australia so I'm holding out for significant exchange rate...

Re: Exchange rate AUD Vs GBP £1 buys $1.83

That's generally my thoughts too. I'd say the weaknesses of the AUD are currently greater than GBP. But then again, often perception is everything and reality and logic matters very little when it...

Re: Exchange rate AUD Vs GBP £1 buys $1.83

What an incredible roller coaster ride the GB£ to the AU$ is having. Any guesses how things will develop from here?

Re: Exchange rate AUD Vs GBP £1 buys $1.83

Our dilemmas have been sort of the same as yours but moving in the opposite direction. One thing I don't regret is waiting for the pound to strengthen against the dollar and for our UK house price...

Re: Exchange rate AUD Vs GBP £1 buys $1.83

Very unpredictable. There was once lots of talk that an interest rate rise would happen in the UK before Christmas but that appears to be off the cards for now.

Re: Exchange rate AUD Vs GBP £1 buys $1.83

The Aussie dollar seems to have been bouncing back these last few weeks. Looks like my 2.5 to 1 prediction (well hope, really) by Christmas aint ganna happen :thumbdown:

Think I'll steer clear of them all for now! :lol:

Re: Exchange rate AUD Vs GBP £1 buys $1.83

That's a good observation that does suggest the AUD has further to fall.

Re: Exchange rate AUD Vs GBP £1 buys $1.83

Peaked at over 2.13 last night. Looking at the increase over the last 3-4 months we're seeing a more or less steady drop in AUD to GBP value of about 10c per month. Carry on like this and it'll be...

Re: Exchange rate AUD Vs GBP £1 buys $1.83

It briefly went over 2.1 to 1 last night. At this rate we could be at 2.2 before the end of August. :blink:

Re: Exchange rate AUD Vs GBP £1 buys $1.83

Against the pound it's going up and down like a yo-yo this last 24 hours or so.

The behaviour over the last 5 years looks interesting:

Re: Exchange rate AUD Vs GBP £1 buys $1.83

That would be tempting but there's a five year Australia residence period beyond which we become liable for capital gains tax. We have to sell it this year.

Re: Exchange rate AUD Vs GBP £1 buys $1.83

I came over here just a short while before you, kept the UK house and spent as little sterling as possible (the exchange rate then was 1.6 to 1). Back then it really hurt to transfer my hard earned...
