The Aussie firmed to 0.7176, near its 12-month high, riding the risk-on tech tape and a firmer oil price.

AUD is tracking equity risk appetite and the commodity bounce more than rate spreads in the current regime.

0.7200 is the key resistance; a hold above keeps the uptrend intact, with 0.7120 as first support.

Silver firmed 0.4% to $75.31, edging higher but still roughly a third below its cycle peak.

Silver lags gold's central-bank bid; it needs industrial and AI-hardware demand to close the gap with the yellow metal.

$74 support and $78 resistance bracket the move; a gold breakout would likely drag silver with it.
