The AUD was US 68c in early Jan.23, briefly hitting US 71c in late Jan 23. Since then it has been on a, generally, declining trend, hitting US 64c yesterday.
Many expert commentators are stating they expect this trend downwards to continue- particularly if US inflation remains stubbornly high, which will delay US interest rate cuts.
As WHC is paid in US $, a continuing decline in the AUD/USD exchange rates is good news- WHC profits, when converted back to AUD, will result in significant, increasing WHC profit margins.

It is bang on 64 US cents this morning, and threatening to break even lower".
