CZK: Koruna Inches Lower, CNB Holds Financial Stability Meeting

CZK

EUR/CZK has edged higher this morning, pausing a three-day losing streak. The rate deals +0.014 at 25.287 with familiar near-term technical targets still in play. A move through Nov 6 high of 25.449 would open up Aug 1 high of 25.535. On the flip side, bears continue to look for losses past the 50-DMA (25.274) and the 100-DMA (25.237).

  • The CNB will announce the outcome of its quarterly review of the countercyclical buffer (CCyB) rate and other macroprudential settings. The rate was kept unchanged at 1.25% during the previous meeting in September.
  • The IMF said that Czechia still has room to lower interest rates to about 3% next year but recommended "gradual" easing going forward, with the repo rate trimmed to 4% earlier this month.
  • The CZGB curve has twist steepened. The PX Index operates 0.4% lower on the day.
