Australian dollar to the moon as freedom dies

David Llewellyn-Smith

Monday 25 May 2020

The AUD is up and away this morning, recapturing the mid-65s, former resistance, now support:

Bonds have eased:

Stocks jumped at the open and the chart is still bullish:

Big Iron is loving making the rifles and cudgels of autocracy:

Big Gas too:

And Big Gold:

Big Banks are caught an L-shaped recovery tractor beam:

But Big Chunt only goes up:

There is nothing quite like the spectacle of liberal markets cheering the death of liberalism.
