AUD/USD bears very much in control, attacking 0.7100
FXStreet (Guatemala) - AUD/USD is currently trading at 0.7099 with a high of 0.7120 and a low of 0.7094.
AUD/USD is chipping away at the 0.71 handle to the downside while we await Tokyo to come online after a strong performance by the greenback overnight on the back of the FOMC statement. It appears that the FOMC is leaving the door open for a rate hike this December while they are less concerned about the negative impacts that a slower Global economy is having on the US economy while removing the previous cautionary statement of such risks hindering timings of a rate hike.
