Analysis and Recommendation:

The NZD/USD is up today trading at 0.7912 aiming at the all impressive 80 number again. The pair added 0.29% since yesterday.

The kiwi has risen against the greenback ahead of the central bank’s review of interest rates.

The kiwi benefited from a slight improvement in risk appetite overnight after European Central Bank council member Ewald Nowotny argued the region’s rescue fund should get a banking license.

The Reserve Bank of New Zealand is expected to keep the official cash rate at 2.5 per cent at its monthly review.
