Instead of continuing to advance, the New Zealand Dollar (NZD) is more likely to trade in a 0.5980/0.6040 range. In the longer run, upward momentum is building tentatively; NZD could edge higher to 0.6075, UOB Group’s FX analysts Quek Ser Leang and Peter Chia note.

NZD likely to trade in a 0.5980/0.6040 range

24-HOUR VIEW: “Yesterday, we highlighted that NZD ‘could drop to 0.5900 before the risk of a more sustained recovery increases.’ However, NZD rebounded from a low of 0.5933 to 0.6037, closing sharply higher by 1.41% at 0.6023. The sharp rebound appears to be running ahead of itself, and instead of continuing to advance, NZD is more likely to trade in a 0.5980/0.6040 range.”
