All the stock in the shops and on the water has been paid for at the old rates of whatever the exchange rate was when the gear left the factory.
Anything which is ordered now and paid for now is potentially cheaper
The big problem is the US Peso is heading south against pretty much every currency, so if the raw materials are purchased in say Euro's then there may be no real cost saving.
Well good for anything coming in, not so much for anything going out.
Lucky Aus doesn't have anyone trying to export, grain, minerals, coal, oil, meat or anything else made in australia. Could cost a lot of jobs if it stays high for to long.
Good news for fuel prices as it should continue to come down. Well if you have a job left to pay for it.
It will also cost tourism as it will cost more to come to Aus, good for us to travel though so again it is not good for the economy.
