About Australian Dollar to US Dollar Exchange Rate

What it measures

The USD per Australian dollar exchange rate (FRED series DEXUSAL) shows how many US dollars one Australian dollar buys, quoted from the noon buying rate in New York certified by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. The daily series covers the period since the Australian dollar floated in 1983, priced in the USD-per-unit convention.

Why it matters

The Aussie is the standard liquid proxy for Chinese growth and industrial commodity demand, since Australia exports iron ore, coal, and LNG heavily to Asia. Its historically positive rate differential made it a favored carry currency, and macro traders use the pair to express views on the global cycle without taking direct emerging market exposure.

How to read it

A rising rate means Australian dollar strength, typically alongside commodity rallies and healthy risk appetite; falls accompany China slowdowns and risk-off episodes. The float-era range runs from below 0.50 US dollars in 2001 to above 1.10 during the 2011 commodity boom. Because the quote is dollars per Aussie, direction reads opposite to most emerging market pairs on this list.
