The Australian dollar strengthened early in the Asian session after China reported a strong RatingDog Manufacturing PMI reading, boosting sentiment for the growth-linked currency.
AUD/USD opened with a bullish gap, but later depreciated from those highs. The pair still held in positive territory, trading near the 0.7030 level during the morning hours.
No further details were provided on the extent of the decline, but the pullback suggests traders may have taken profits after the initial spike.
