The Australian dollar was heavily sold down in the week ended 13 September 2014. The currency was trading at $US0.904, and Aitken Advisors’ James Aitken says it needs to fall much further in order to benefit the economy. He suggests that an appropriate level for the currency may be around $US0.80, while Warren Hogan of the ANZ Bank forecasts that it will fall to $US0.88 by the end of the year
