Fundamental analysis
The NZDUSD rate recovered, reaching 0.6102, with a positive correction underway for the second consecutive day.
Annual inflation in New Zealand rose to 1.2% in September from 0.4% in August. This is a mixed signal just after the Federal Bank of New Zealand’s 50-basis-point rate cut this week. The RBNZ might use the price argument next to pause an overly aggressive monetary policy easing.
At the same time, the baseline scenario suggests another 50-basis-point rate cut in November, supported by statistics. Sentiment in the manufacturing sector improved to 46.9 points in September from 46.1 in August. However, it has remained below the crucial level of 50.0 points, which separates contraction from growth, for 19 months.
The NZDUSD forecast suggests that a correction could continue.
