The Australian and New Zealand dollars declined against their
major counterparts in the Asian session on Monday, amid continued
uncertainty about the Omicron variant and fears over a property
downturn in China.
Trading in shares of Evergrande was suspended after the property
developer has been ordered to destroy buildings in Hainan
province.
The Chinese government has instructed Evergrande to abolish 39
residential buildings due to illegal construction.
Record numbers of new coronavirus cases forced many governments
to impose strict restrictions, clouding the global economic
outlook.
In Asia, stock markets in Australia, New Zealand, China and
Japan remained closed for the New Year holiday.
The aussie fell to a 5-day low of 0.7240 against the greenback,

The aussie dropped to 1.5669 against the euro, 1.0606 against

aussie is seen finding support around 1.58 against the euro, 1.045
against the kiwi and 82.00 against the yen.
The aussie, however, rebounded to 0.9199 against the loonie,
following a decline to 0.9174 at 5:15 pm ET. On the upside, 0.93 is
possibly seen as its next resistance level.
The kiwi retreated to 1.6624 against the euro, 78.66 against the
yen and 0.6823 against the greenback, after climbing to 1.6573,
more than 5-week high of 79.02 and a 4-day high of 0.6857,
respectively in early deals. The kiwi may find support around 1.69
against the euro, 76.00 against the yen and 0.66 against the
greenback.
Looking ahead, PMI reports from major European economies are due
in the European session.
