  • ASX opens slightly down as Australian dollar nears four-year high amid federal budget focus
    May 14, 2026, 1:09 PM EDT. The ASX opened marginally lower, with the S&P/ASX 200 down 0.1% to 8,623 points as investors absorbed the federal budget. The Australian dollar remains notably strong, holding above 72 US cents and nearing a four-year high last seen in April 2022. Analysts attribute the currency's resilience to Australia's hawkish central bank, robust demand for LNG and industrial metals, and solid equity markets. Forecasts suggest further gains, with some predicting a rise to 75-76 US cents by 2026. The US Senate confirmation of Kevin Warsh for Federal Reserve chair, seen as favoring softer US interest rates, also boosted the AUD. Global markets showed mixed moves with the S&P 500 up 0.59% and oil prices steady. The ASX 200 has fallen 2.67% over five days but remains flat year-to-date.
