The AUD/USD pair declined to approximately 0.7040 during Tuesday's Asian session, failing to sustain gains from robust Chinese trade data released earlier in the day.
The Australian Dollar remained under pressure as a domestic consumer confidence reading came in weaker than anticipated, offsetting positive external trade signals. The data suggests that household sentiment in Australia continues to weigh on the currency despite improved demand from China, a key trading partner.
