NZD/USD extends to 0.5965–0.5970 in Friday's Asian session, a high since early June. Last night's tape was 0.5940.
NZD/USD climbs to a fresh high since early June, around the 0.5965–0.5970 region, in Friday’s Asian session. That is the FXStreet 01:41 UTC stamp. Last night’s tape was 0.5940. This is the same copy. It is not a second kiwi note.
The New Zealand dollar is drawing support from another RBNZ hike being priced, while the US dollar struggles to hold Thursday’s bounce from a three-month low. The same page says markets still have another RBNZ tightening in view.
AUD/USD is the other live Oceania tape.
New Zealand printed a monthly trade deficit of NZ$1.95 billion in July. The same page says that did little to move the pair, which “remain[s] at the mercy of USD price dynamics.” It is color on this restamp.
The China LPR hold is already filed. It stays off this recut.
The Treasury long-end buyback is still on the dollar tape. Hormuz risk, the page writes, can still limit kiwi gains if safe-haven dollar demand returns. Live kiwi is on prices. The next stamps sit on the economic calendar.
