Forex news for Asia trading Friday 7 August 2015  
Australia:
The Australian dollar had an uneventful morning leading up to the housing finance data and Reserve Bank of Australia’s Statement on Monetary Policy. These were both released at the same time, the Statement was of most interest to the market (both are summarised in the bullets, above), which took the AUD higher immediately with a jump of around 25 points before it consolidated on session highs.
