KIWI: NZD/USD has added 4 pips and last sits at $0.6692 after falling 22 pips
yesterday, with the bulk of the intraday move being constituted by the pair's
slide into the European morning. Elsewhere, price action was subdued thanks to a
market holiday in the U.S.
- A jump back onto the $0.6700 handle would shift bullish focus to the 50%
retracement of the YtD range, located a further 10 pips above. Jul 3 & 4 highs
of $0.6720 provide the next upside target. Bears initially look to Jun 27/Jul 3
at $0.6671/70.
- Worth noting that the price of Fonterra shares dropped sharply by as much as
5.3% yesterday, touching a record low (but recovered somewhat since). Fonterra
CFO Rivers said that nothing new happened that could have driven the move.
- NZ focus next week turns to food price index due Wednesday, card spending data
due Thursday and BusinessNZ manufacturing PMI due Friday. RBNZ Gov Orr will
speak on Phase 2 of the Reserve Bank Act review.
