NZD: NZD Hits New Ytd Highs On China Stimulus

NZD
  • NZD/USD has reached a new ytd high after hitting 0.6375, the move has been driven by optimism around Chinese stimulus measures, including the People's Bank of China's plan to lower mortgage rates.
  • This upbeat sentiment benefits the risk-sensitive NZD & AUD, while a slightly subdued USD has helped following a dovish Federal  and expectations and a potential rate cut in November.
  • Geopolitical risks in the Middle East are providing some support to the safe-haven USD, capping the pair's upside.
