How is it a bad data given it's as expected as the Reuters' poll(12 economists polled)? It is even better than 50.1, which is polled over 33 economists by Bloomberg. That being said, the AUD will be much more determined by the risk on/off sentiment ...

sounds like the US is doing a worse job picking random numbers in NFP. They can't even put a plausible story behind their confusing numbers.

Thanks buddy for your viewpoint. I was thinking about what are the driving force of the market. In this case, it looks more like selling the facts after Yellen's testimony (although there is a bit of delay allowing the MMs to load up more shorts ).

I know people here are mostly chartists. But can anyone explain the USD bullishness across the board given yesterday bad job numbers and bad trade balance and Yellen sounding dovish?

Do you guys really think AUD fundamentally is weak? url If the RBA still wants AUD lower, then China should send a big Christmas gift to them.

China has 1.3 billion people, what will happen if it relies its growth on consumption? The new government is indeed saying they are shifting focus away from exporting, but few people here believe it. The government is just trying to rebalance the ...

It looks like China increased 12% and 30% imports from AUS and NZ from a year ago. Can't say the fundamentals are bad for these two countries. By the way, more imports of raw materials is a leading indicator of the economy.

Saw it from Chinese media that a new round of 4 trillion yuan stimulus is on the verge of coming. Can't find english version of this news yet. Looks like projects related to environment improvement is a big chunk of it, but there are also projects ...
