AUD/GBP Transfer

The Bank of England (BoE) cut their interest rate Friday from 5.00% to 4.75% as widely expected. The vote, an 8-1 decision was accompanied by benign policy guidance with a gradual approach to slowly removing restraints. The recent budget reinforcing a boost to growth and inflation. The British Pound (GBP) pushed higher over the news to0 0.5090 (1.9650). Heading into Tuesday the AUD has recovered slightly to 0.5110 (1.9570) as we await Australian Jobs data this week.

Current Level: 0.5107
Support: 0.5080
Resistance: 0.5175
Last week’s range: 0.5055- 0.5147

EURO/NZD Transfer

The Euro (EUR) has been slammed of late, the New Zealand Dollar extended gains Monday off 0.5570 (1.7950) to trade around 0.5590 (1.7870) into Tuesday sessions. The Euro has been weak across the board off the back of the collapse of the German Govt and the new “Trump” govt. A daily close through the 6-week high at 0.5610 (1.7830) could spell further troubles for the Euro. German economic sentiment prints tonight and could also show a decline to overall growth.

Current Level: 1.7869

GBP/NZD Transfer

The risk off Friday tone took the New Zealand Dollar (NZD) lower to 0.4615 (2.1670) against the British Pound (GBP) , strange as the Bank of England (BoE) cut rates by 25 points to 4.75%. This must have been fully priced in as markets preferred to buy the Pound. Perhaps the BoE tone surprised markets by saying they see upside inflation risks due to the recent budget. NZ surveyed inflation expectations 1 year out have gone from 2.40% to 2.05% with the 2 year up from 2.03% to 2.12%. The kiwi traded up post the news to 0.4635 (2.1580).

Precious metals markets and the latest Chinese data put pressure back on the Australian Dollar (AUD) as the currency gave back momentum. NZ 2-year Inflation Expectations ticked up from 2.03% to 2.12% with the RBNZ cash rate forecast respectively 4.25% by Dec 24 and 3.25% by September 2025 of note. The Aussie jobs report for October is expected to come in poor and support further kiwi rises.

The survey of New Zealand Inflation expectations 1 year out dropped from 2.40% to 2.05% and the 2-year prediction increased from 2.03% to 2.12%. The report also showed the RBNZ OCR forecast until Dec 2024 is 4.25% and out to September 2025 – 3.25%. Markets seem to be on the fence with either a 50-point cut, or a 75-point cut at the Nov 27 meeting.  The New Zealand Dollar (NZD) remains steady Monday against the US Dollar (USD) around the 0.5960 level having bounced off 0.5975 earlier. US CPI y/y is expected to print higher for October to 2.6% up from 2.4% and could push the kiwi lower into the close of the week.

AUD/USD Transfer

Volatile markets during the US Election results sent the Australian Dollar (AUD) to an 8th August low of 0.6510 overnight, the US Dollar (USD) surging higher on a Trump win. Prices in the cross have since recovered to 0.6580 early this morning. The Fed will cut rates tomorrow by 25 points but will tread cautiously going forward with Trump supporting lower taxes and tariffs potentially impacting higher inflation. The Fed is predicted to make 2 more cuts this year with 1 in 2025 before easing in 2026. This now may be up in the air with increased inflationary pressures. Ultimately holding the Aussie lower for longer over the course of the next couple of years.

EURO/AUD Transfer

The Euro (EUR) has performed poorly this week against most main board currencies and has slumped against the Australian Dollar (AUD) to 0.6140 (1.6280) Wednesday before retracing moves back to 0.6125 (1.6330) in early morning. The RBA held interest rates at 4.35% Tuesday siting upside risks to inflation with messy govt electricity subsidies and automotive fuel prices influencing policy. We predict prices to retest the 0.6200 (1.6150) resistance zone.
