GBP/USD is down marginally at 1.2670 while AUD/USD is up 0.4% to 0.6725 as the antipodean currencies are keeping a more positive start to proceedings this week. NZD/USD is also up 0.5% to 0.6235 even with a lack of headlines to work with.</p><p>Both the aussie and kiwi are building on technical breaks from last week, with equities also consolidating at the highs for the year for now.</p>
