TOKYO - The Australian dollar got a boost against the greenback on Monday following a surprise election victory by the country’s conservative government, while the yen dipped slightly on a recovery in market sentiment.

The Aussie was the big mover early in Asia and was last up half a percent at $0.6904, having bounced from a four-month trough of $0.6865. It was briefly quoted as high as $0.6990 but dealers said that was a miss-hit and the true dealt peak was $0.6938. “But election results in the past haven’t been a big driver for the Australian dollar. A change of government doesn’t usually lead to a big change of policy,” he said.

The yen dipped on a broad improvement of risk appetite among investors. Data showed the Japanese economy was stronger than expected in the last quarter.
