The Australian and NZ dollars moved up against their major counterparts in the Asian session on Thursday, as most Asian shares rose following the positive cues overnight from Wall Street for the first time in three days and the substantial rebound in crude oil prices.

Oil prices recovered from its historic low on hopes of further production cuts to reduce the glut in the oil market.

Optimism about more stimulus measures from global central banks to mitigate the economic impact of the coronavirus pandemic also lifted stocks.

Data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics showed that Australia's exports surged in March driven by shipment of iron ore to China and gold to Hong Kong and the UK.

Exports increased 29 percent, or A$8 billion in March. At the same time, imports advanced 10 percent on month in March.
