NZ Dollar Lower vs. US Dollar, Bounce vs. Other Rivals

 

The New Zealand dollar traded lower versus its U peer

 but managed to rebound against such major rivals as the euro and the Japanese yen.

The US dollar
continued to receive support from optimism caused by the victory of Donald Trump in the US presidential elections. Meanwhile, the accommodative monetary policy of the Reserve Bank of New Zealand made the kiwi rather vulnerable. Yet the New Zealand currency managed to rise above the opening level against some of its rivals despite negative fundamentals, including weaker-than-expected industrial production in China.
NZD/USD dropped from 0.7136 to 0.7093 as of 14:19 GMT today. EUR/NZD went down from 1.5164 to 1.5138 after rising to 1.5251 intraday.
