AUD/USD recovery falters ahead of 0.8000

FXStreet (Córdoba) - AUD/USD failed to benefit from a weaker greenback and to extend gains during the American session as speculations the RBA could announce a rate cut next week have kept the Aussie undermined near multi-year lows.

The Australian dollar extended its recovery into a second day and peaked at 0.7975, but unlike other major peers, it failed to secure big gains against the greenback. Having pulled back from highs, AUD/USD is currently trading at 0.7935, still up 0.15% on the day.
