AUSSIE SWAPS: Westpac suggest entering a pay Aussie 2yr swaps vs. receiving NZ
2yr swaps position at -45bp, target of -25bp & stop at -55bp. Westpac writes
"AU-NZ swap spreads have fallen sharply since the RBNZ's on-hold decision on 13
Nov. Currently the RBA/RBNZ cash rate spread is -25bp (0.75%-1.00%), and we
forecast that spread to remain unch. in one year's time (0.75%-0.50%), with each
central bank seen cutting in Feb & then holding. Mkt pricing is slightly in
disagreement, the 1yr-ahead meeting data spread priced at -34bp (0.51% - 0.85%).
On this argument alone, we would be biased to paying AU-NZ yield spreads. That
bias is supported by a regression of the 2yr spread vs implied 1yr-ahead meeting
spread, the current 2yr spread level lying well below the historical avg.
Breaking down the -34bp forward cash spread in to its 2 components, we see that
the market is broadly priced for our RBA view & under-priced for our RBNZ view,
so we are more biased to receiving NZ than we are paying AU. However, both AU &
NZ cash pricing are heavily influenced by offshore action so this cross-mkt
spread allows us to insulate from some of that noise. The trade is also
conditionally supported by technicals. Carry estimates are currently positive."
