Chart AUD-USD

The AUD-USD chart rate in the real-time price chart tells traders how many US Dollars are needed to buy a single Australian Dollar. This currency pair is also known as the “Aussie”. Together with the New Zealand Dollar and the Canadian Dollar, the AUD is a commodity currency, that is a currency whose country’s exports are largely comprised of raw materials (precious metals, oil, agriculture, etc.).

Australia is a big exporter to China and its economy and currency reflect any change in the situation in that country. The prevailing view is that the Australian Dollar offers diversification benefits in a portfolio containing the major world currencies because of its greater exposure to Asian economies.
