Friday, 28 March 2025 04:42 WIB | AUD/USD |AUD/USD,

The Australian Dollar (AUD) trades steady around the region 0.6300 against the US Dollar (USD) during Thursday's American session.

The AUD/USD pair trades within a tight range, reflecting market indecision but holding ground as optimism over China's stimulus pledges provides underlying support.
