Aussie shies from 6-mth peak on China GDP; bonds up

  SYDNEY, April 16 (Reuters) - The Australian dollar AUD=D4 flirted with sixth-month peaks on Thursday but a disappointing China growth report took the steam out of its rebound, which had been driven by brave bets the world economy was stabilising. The Aussie slid 0.4 percent after data showed China's economy grew 6.1 percent in the fourth quarter from a year ago, only a little below analysts forecasts for 6.3 percent, but much lower than speculation about growth being as strong as 8 percent.
