The Australian dollar strengthened against other major currencies in Asian trading hours on Friday, following recent economic data that hinted at an interest rate hike by the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) as soon as this month.

The data showed that Australia's economy expanded by 0.4 percent quarter-on-quarter (QoQ) in the second quarter (Q2), exceeding projections.

This development has increased expectations for an interest rate hike, which would be a significant move to curb inflation and stabilize the country's currency.
