Australian dollar fell against the greenback on Thursday, following weak economic data.

 

Market fears over the trade war remain prevalent with no positive signs of negotiations between the United States and China.

 

US Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said that officials from the United States and China would meet in a new round of trade negotiations next Monday, but did not say he was optimistic about progress in the talks.

 

Government data showed that Australia's manufacturing PMI fell to 51.4 points last month from 52 points in the previous reading.

 

In addition, the Australian services PMI fell to 51.9 in June from 52.6 in May.

 

In terms of trade, at 16:13 GMT, AUD/USD fell by 0.4% to 0.6977, and recorded a high of 0.7007 and a low of 0.6973.
