Analysis and Recommendation:
The NZD/USD is trading at 0.7942. The New Zealand dollar has dipped back from a record-high versus the euro as markets prepared for European finance ministers to finalize the EU bank supervisor plan adopted at last month’s summit. At the end of the meeting last evening, the Eurogroup only announced that it had moved forward with immediate decision on Spain and that everything else was still ongoing.
The kiwi was largely unchanged at 79.66 US cents from 79.60 cents.
Market focus remains fixed on Brussels where eurozone treasurers are doing their best to shore up global confidence and find a solution to Spain’s banking crisis.
Early comments by European Central Bank president Mario Draghi have signaled policymakers may be open to another interest-rate cut if the economic outlook warrants it.
This morning another round of disappointing eco data from China, continues to show a slowdown with larger implications as their imports showed a significant drop.
