KIWI
KIWI: NZD/USD came under some pressure in early Friday trade, registering a low
of $0.6524. Some pointed to a moderation in NZ net inbound migration as the
catalyst for the modest move lower. This came after risk aversion pressured the
cross Thursday, although the move lower in U.S. yields limited losses for the
rate.
- Later in the day supportive measures/rhetoric from the PBOC & Chinese
regulators alleviated some of the negative sentiment, allowing the rate to
register a high of $0.6566, last dealing just shy of that level.
- Familiar support and resistance levels remain in play. The 50-DMA ($0.6589)
provides the initial resistance level, closely followed by $0.6600 on any break
above, while initial support is noted at $0.6460.
- NZ trade data headlines the local docket over the next week or so.
