WELCOME to Money, TD’s Tue feature on what the Australian dollar is doing.

$1AUD = US0.768

THE Australian dollar rebounded on Fri after dropping to three- month lows in a horror week that saw the AUD/USD down 1.6%.

Wed’s weak inflation numbers were the main driver of the dollar’s weakness.

Trade balance and retail sales figures on Thu and Fri will be the key market movers.

The dollar was weak against the NZ dollar dropping almost a cent yesterday, however it is making a recovery this morning.

AUD was stronger against the Canadian dollar as investors are wary of tomorrow’s economic data out of Canada.
