Pounds To Australian Dollars today

THE Australian dollar has reached another post-float 28-year high against the US dollar.

The dollar exchange rate reached its record high of 100.57 US cents in early trade today, another post-float 28-year high.

Australia's push above parity with the US dollar rate will have a mixed impact on the economy, Prime Minister Julia Gillard said.

"This is a mixed thing. It's good for some industries and bad for others,'' Ms Gillard said on the Nine Network.

"If you rely on imported components to do what you do, then it makes a good difference. But if you're competing for things like tourism, international education, it makes it really tough."

Buy US dollar slid overnight, briefly touching a nine-month low against the best euro exchange rate, after the Federal Reserve said it would spend US$601 billion to buy US government bonds in an effort to boost the economy.

Investors had expected the Fed's action for months, since Ben Bernanke, the central bank's head, hinted at the move in a speech in late August.
