The Australian dollar fell to nearly a 2-week low of 112.24 against the yen and a 6-day low of 1.6438 against the euro, from yesterday's closing quotes of 113.01 and 1.6338, respectively.
Against the U.S. and the Canadian dollars, the aussie slipped to a 2-1/2-month low of 0.6950 and an 8-day low of 0.9858 from Monday's closing quotes of 0.6995 and 0.9903, respectively.
The aussie edged down to 1.2222 against the NZ dollar, from yesterday's closing value of 1.2248.
