A stronger than expected recovery, plus a faster COVID response globally, see both the NZD and AUD performing well.
USA
It’s Thanksgiving day in the US today , but the jobless claims numbers which showed a back-to-back rise since July and were ahead of the market's expectations, and showing a weaker labour market.
