Ohh eh eh, yesterdays SA Manufacturing Production figures at -8%, 5 year low (prev 1.40%, exp -1.90%, actual -3.60%) should have been enough to rob you of your sleep last night.  That, coupled with just as dismal mining industry figures (-7.7%) caused R/$ to lowest since Feb 14 at 10.9965, nearly hitting 11.0 psychological key level. Thank you numsa & kie.

And on an unrelated but interesting note, Australia raised its terrorist-threat level to "high” indicating near future attack likely.
