Friday 15 June 2018

The AUD is still under pressure this morning:

Bonds are bid:

XJO has launched:

Dalian is soft:

Big miners are up:

Big oil is up:

Big Gold is up:

Even Big Scum has rebounded as yields fall:

And Puswad:

A word of warning, Shanghai is breaking down as capital flight intensifies:

But for today the lower AUD is manna from heaven. Avagoodweekend.
