AUD USD

Euro net-shorts hit an 11-year extreme as the US dollar rebounds. COT positioning reveals growing pressure on sterling and commodity currencies.

A sharp equity-led selloff has driven AUD/USD toward critical June-low support, with strong NFP data adding pressure ahead of next week’s U.S. CPI.

The US dollar has found some mild amid the tech rout in recent days, most visibly against risk sensitive and commodity dollars. Today, we have so far seen a bit of a recovery in global indices from their overnight lows.
