SUPPORT:0.7110.706
RESISTANCE:0.7210.726
Past
What happened
The Aussie slipped 0.3% to 0.7159 as rising US yields and a risk-off tilt from reports Tehran is exiting talks weighed on high-beta currencies.
Why
Why it matters
AUD trades as a risk and China proxy; the Iran-driven jump in oil and yields is a classic headwind even with the dollar soft elsewhere.
Watch
What to watch
0.7110 is first support if risk sours further; US JOLTS Tuesday and any China data set direction into payrolls.
