HUF Moderately to Significantly 'Oversold' Against Major Crosses

HUNGARY
  • This morning, economic data showed that PPI inflation decelerated to 14.4% YoY in August, down from 14.8% the previous month.
  • Yesterday we saw that average gross wages surged to 7.9% YoY in July (vs. 8% exp.), up from 3.5% the previous month.
  • The slow down in the pace of hikes by the NBH has been weighing on the HUF, which has experienced significant selling pressures in the past two weeks, decoupling from local peers (PLN and CZK).
  • The table shows that HUF has been one of the worst EM FX performers in September, down nearly 5% against the US Dollar.
  • RSI indicator is currently showing that HUF is moderately to significantly 'oversold' against major crosses following the recent selloff.
