Supported Below $0.62 After Pressure Through European Session

NZD

NZD/USD prints at $0.6215/20, the pair was ~0.5% softer yesterday.

  • The greenback was on the front foot through the European session as odds of another 25bp rate hike by the Federal Reserve increased to 80% and a rally in USD/JPY spilled over into wider USD strength. NZD/USD was pressured printing its lowest level since March 28.
