  • USD broadly fell after Fed left door open for pause after 25 bp hike nL1N36Z2C8

  • AUD/USD traded as high as 0.6702 - but eased when Wall Street fell

  • Late AUD/JPY selling on report PacWest Bancorp seeking a sale

  • PacWest shares collapsed over 50% in the after hours on the news

  • US banking crisis likely to dominate action in the Asian session

  • AUD/JPY vulnerable for more losses after falling 1.30% Wednesday

  • AUD/USD breached the 21-day MA - but failed to close above that reading
