    IMO the flight of investment capital out of Australia is putting downward pressure
    on the value of the AUD:

    IMO this has many moving parts:
    -anti-China sentiment by our Government & China trade sanctions
    -the economic impact of Covid particularly on tourism & foreign student
    -the recent bouts of Covid lockdowns in NSW, Vic & ACT
    -the downward pressure on iron ore 7 met coal pricing by China
    -the likelihood of recession (2 qtrs of negative economic growth)
    -massive closures of small businesses.
    -the prospect of a housing bubble
