AUD/USD back above 0.6400 after the very solid jobs report

Data post is here:

• Australia November unemployment rate 3.9% (vs. 4.2% expected)… did a double take on that

it took me a few moments to slot that 3.9 figure into the headline and then to actually hit ‘publish’ … I was not expecting such a strong surprise (yeah, I know … if I was expecting it it wouldn’t have been a surprise!).

• Solid jump in full time jobs.
• Jobless rate back under 4%
• participation did slip a little though

Oz dollar liked it:
