China\u2019s NBS Manufacturing PMI also rose 51.9 for March, surpassed market expectation of 51.2. While the data have help lifted some confidence in the market, further upside further potential for Aussie may be limited following the appreciation of greenback which may reduce the appeal for riskier assets such as Aussie itself. At the time of writing, AUD\/USD edge higher 0.09% to 0.7599.<\/p>\n
