Soaring commodity prices while specs sit net short A$ suggests ongoing gains. Next target for the AUD/USD pair is the 100-day moving average (DMA) at 0.7416 and at a stretch, the 3 September high at 0.7478, economists at Westpac report.
The aussie is finding plenty of support from renewed commodity price squeeze

“The overhang of short positions seems to be helping the aussie grind higher against a solid US dollar, with the next targets the 100-DMA at 0.7416 and at a stretch, the 3 Sep high at 0.7478.”
“Domestically, NSW and VIC vaccination rates are rising quickly, with Australia firmly on track for one of the world’s highest vaccination rates.”
