News
This week
New Zealand's Reserve Bank raised interest rates for the first time in 3
years (25bp to 2.75%) helping its currency to extend gains against the
greenback and the Aussie dollar. Interestingly,
the Kiwi dollar is at historic levels against the Aussie dollar, having
appreciated from 1.37 in 2011 to its present level around 1.0570.
The EURUSD hit a two month high (Thursday
13th) before reversing sharply, with no obvious news indicating
why. However, there seems to be a clear
correlation with US stock market movements and technical analysts are pointing
to significant Fibonacci levels.
EUR/USD traders may want to keep an eye on German
and USA yields which may give an indication of direction for the currency pair.
