Australian dollar hit again as credit crunches building

David Llewellyn-Smith

Tuesday 3 July 2018

AUD is near the lows again after a nasty miss on building approvals which looks very credit crunchy:

Bonds still bid:

XJO up:

CNY still crashing with the PBOC setting:

Shanghai does not look well:

Dalian soft:

Big Miners are weak. FMG is looking to break to new lows:

Big Gas still powering:

Big Gold finally focused on AU over AUD:

Big Mortgage is up again as yields fall. Reliable as clockwork:

Big Realty is in a world of its own. Or perhaps it senses a rate hike?
