Morgan Stanley sees the Aussie to fall back to 0.70 per dollar. However, it concedes that the currency will stay elevated for a while.
First, the bank sees the Fed to keep rates on hold till December, which means a prolonged period of weaker U.S. dollar.
Second, it is Australian politics. “The May budget complicates the chance for an imminent RBA cut.”
Low interest rates have been supporting demand and the lower exchange rate overall has helped the traded sector.
Credit growth to households continues at a moderate pace, while that to businesses has picked up over the past year or so.
These factors are all assisting the economy to make the necessary economic adjustments, though an appreciating exchange rate could complicate this.
