The growth of the Australian dollar and sparked the growth of other commodity currencies against the US dollar, including the New Zealand dollar. As already known, the RBA left interest rates today in Australia unchanged at 1.5%. In a statement, the RBA stated that "taking into account available information and, after easing monetary policy at meetings in May and August, the bank's board considered that the preservation of the old policy at this meeting would correspond to the sustainable economic growth and achievements since the inflation target." Strengthening New Zealand dollar also contributed to today rising commodity prices. So, today published the price index for raw materials RBA, which is considered a leading indicator of changes in the export prices, showed a 16% growth in October (in annual terms). Price changes directly affect the GDP of countries with economies dependent on exports of commodities and exchange rates in these countries. New Zealand also belongs to the category of such countries as the most important export article of the country is dry milk and other dairy products.
The New Zealand dollar is supported by improving the terms of trade in New Zealand against a background of falling global supplies of dairy products and almost inevitable rise in prices of dairy products, the main export product of New Zealand.
Interest rates in New Zealand also remain relatively high, despite the likelihood of further decline. Current interest rate in New Zealand is at the level of 2%, remaining one of the highest in the world among countries with developed economies. And it attracts investors to purchase New Zealand almost a safe currency, income, as well as traders who use «carry-trade» strategy, when a more expensive currency is bought at the expense of cheaper.
Despite the fact that the Reserve Bank of New Zealand is likely to again reduce the official interest rate in November (RBNZ meeting is scheduled for November 9) and, possibly, in the 1 st half of 2017, the New Zealand dollar retains its position in the foreign exchange market, and the pair NZD / USD is in a steady uptrend.
From the news today forward data from the US. Between 17:00 - 18:00 (GMT + 3) will be published on the block US major macroeconomic indicators for October (the index of gradual acceleration of inflation from the ISM (estimate 54), the index of business activity in the manufacturing sector ISM (forecast 51.5)) .
If data will be weaker than forecast, it will give an additional impetus to the pair NZD / USD.
Otherwise, if the US data come out stronger, the US dollar quickly regains lost ground.
In the period after 18:00 the index is published on dairy product prices, which usually causes a spike in volatility in the New Zealand dollar trade. The last two weeks before the auction of dairy products have a slight increase in world prices for dairy products. The price index for dairy products, prepared by the Global Dairy Trade, came out with a value (1.4%). The main export article of the country is just milk. Regular price cuts will put pressure on the New Zealand currency, and vice versa.
