SYDNEY, Oct 1 Asia Pulse - Some currency experts now believe the forecast rise of the Australian dollar to 70 US cents by Christmas may be too conservative following the local unit's surge to a five and a half year high last night.

The local dollar catapulted to a high of 68.70 US cents during overnight trade in New York as the United States dollar was savaged across the board.s

The US dollar weakness came as more data - this time consumer confidence - painted a shaky picture of recovery in the world's largest economy.

However, the Australian dollar then retreated from its highest mark since February 1998 as the Bank of Japan entered the market to sell yen, lifting the US dollar off its lows.

At 0842 AEST today, the Australian dollar was at 68.12 US cents after closing yesterday at 68.05.

National Australia Bank head of market strategy Greg McKenna said 70 US cents could now be behind the Australian dollar within weeks.

NAB has raised its sights to target 75 US cents in 2004.
