Aussie Dollar Slumps to Lowest Level Since July
Original: dollar
The Australian dollar has fallen to its lowest level since July, weighed down by fading expectations of a Reserve Bank of Australia rate hike. Traders are debating whether record short positions against the currency mark a breakout signal or a sentiment extreme. The weakness comes amid broader currency turmoil, with the euro also dropping on high energy prices and street riots in France.
Why now: The Australian dollar's slide to multi-month lows and record short bets are drawing attention from traders and economists.
