\"Australian-dollar-goes-under-US-80-cents-for-first-time-since-2009-659065-l\"<\/a>The Australian dollar went under US 80 cents this morning for the first time in five-and-a-half years.
\nAAP reports that the dollar fell as low as US 79.96 cents this morning and was trading at US 80.05 cents at 8:30 am, following the announcement of a 60 billion Euro per month stimulus package announced by the European Central Bank.
\nThe dollar had weakened on Wednesday from US 82.13 to 80.81, reported Fairfax, following a surprise cut in the Canadian interest rate by the Bank of Canada and a drop in that country\u2019s currency.
\n“The BoC decision has relevant parallels to Australia \u2013 namely, a commodity-centric economy with growth slightly below-trend and an inflation pulse that is providing space for some additional easing,” Daniel Been, senior currency strategist at ANZ Bank, told Fairfax at the time.
\nThere were predictions the Australian dollar would head under US 80 cents following the announcement of quantitative easing by the European Central Bank to deal with the region\u2019s weak economy.
\nEuropean growth is under one per cent and unemployment is at 11.5 per cent.
\nThe bond buying program was worth 60 billion Euro a month until the end of September next year, the ECB\u2019s president Mario Draghi said. This was slightly larger than the 50 billion Euro a month predicted ahead of Draghi\u2019s announcement, according to AAP.<\/p>\n
