Aussie extends gains as US-Japan tariff deal sparks sentiment
(11:23, 23 Jul 2025)
The Australian dollar climbed to $0.676 on Wednesday, posting its fourth consecutive session of gains as positive trade developments boosted sentiment. A new 15% US tariff deal with Japan and progress in US-China negotiations lifted market confidence. Domestically, Westpac's Leading Index eased to 0.03% in June, pointing to softer momentum from weaker commodity prices and reduced work hours. Investors now await July PMI data for further clues on business conditions.
