Australian economy to remain high in 2011
The Australian dollar is expected to continue to rise this year and should reach parity with the US dollar for several months, economists have predicted.
The strong Australian economy has been attributed to the solid growth in China driving demand for commodities.
The US dollar is unlikely to rally in the near future and so the Australian dollar should remain at historically high levels, National Australia Bank's chief market economist Rob Henderson says.
Mr Henderson says the Australian dollar has not fully peaked yet, but it is expected to reach a high around the middle of the year at about $US1.05.
