The Australian dollar has risen Monday, buying 71.71 US cents from 71.61 US cents on Friday.
Last Friday morning, the local currency has fallen, buying 71.25 US cents from 71.61 US cents on Thursday.
It had flatlined near a six-week peak as losses on Asian share markets chilled risk sentiment somewhat.
The Aussie eased back a touch to 71.57 US cents, having run into stiff resistance around 71.75 US cents overnight.
