ID:227512

dollar2The Australian dollar has fallen Wednesday, buying 73.34 US cents from 73.70 US cents on Tuesday.

The Aussie inched ahead to 73.68 US cents on Tuesday and back toward Monday’s four-month peak at 73.94 US cents. Dealers reported stiff resistance above 73.80 US cents which was proving tough to break.
