AUD and JPY are the top G10 FX gainers today, up 0.23% and 0.21% vs the dollar while GBP and NZD are the top losers, down -0.18% and -0.13% vs the dollar. The Australian dollar has risen post-RBA decision to cut rates by 25 basis points to a record low of 1.00%; the central bank was more balanced about the future outlook and this helped investor sentiment towards the Aussie. Elsewhere, Sterling remained weak as next UK PM candidates have both promised rate cuts and increased spending, to add to this is weak economic outlook which may prompt the BoE to change its current hawkish stance. In the Asian equities space, the Nikkei 225 closed up +0.11% at 21,754.27, Hang Seng closed 1.17% at 28875.56 and Kospi ended -0.36% at 2122.02. The European equities were trading mixed with the FTSE 0.19% at 7512.05, DAX -0.21% at 12495.43, and CAC -0.13% at 5560.65.
