On Thursday, the American currency dived a bit, although staying close to multi-month maximums versus the common currency. Yesterday the evergreen buck was underpinned by favorable data on the US labor market, as well as the results of the gathering of the US Federal Reserve.

Exports leapt by 1% to a record A$34.84 billion seasonally updated, due to steady improvements in all major categories. At the same time imports surged by 1% to $33.314 billion, which was due to a leap in fuel imports by about $416 million, thus reflecting higher crude prices in recent months.
