Says in an environment such as the current global environment AUD should not have been expected to do so well, but it has (CIBC says its alone in this category)

  • Investors need to consider the massive amount of liquidity that global authorities have injected into the financial system.
  • These aren't your traditional 'free' markets where prices move off of fundamentals

And warn:
