The firm says that while it was a surprise that the RBA announced a QE extension today, it simply "mirrors similar commitments by other G-10 central banks, including the Fed, and should therefore not be a significant long-term driver of the currency".

While the RBA did surprise somewhat earlier today, it wasn't so much a major one as they are largely seen as bringing forward the decision to extend QE.
