FOREX: AUDNZD Approaches May Highs Following RBNZ Hold
Jul-09 14:37
- A relatively subdued session for the greenback has allowed NZDUSD to consolidate its most recent pull lower, after printing a fresh pullback low below 0.5980 overnight. The pair continues to exert pressure on the 50-day EMA, of which spot has not closed below since April 09. Continued weakness would signal scope for a move towards 0.5883 and 0.5847 (double bottom seen in mid-May and an important pivot level).
- AUDNZD has also extended its recovery to a seven-week high above 1.0900. Trendline support drawn from the April lows has helped underpin the latest bounce for the cross, targeting 1.0922 (May 15 high) initially, before the early April highs just above 1.10.
- As a reminder, the RBNZ held the Official Cash Rate steady at 3.25% on Wednesday as expected, but signalled further cuts may follow if medium-term inflation continues to ease in line with forecasts.
- The decision followed signs of a patchy domestic recovery, as high-frequency data from April and May suggest growth momentum has been slowing. Additionally, the committee weighed the option of a 25bp cut, citing subdued growth and the risk that heightened uncertainty may lead to sustained caution among households and firms.
