AUD/NZD forecasts are influenced by three factors; the relative coronavirus impact on both economies, changes in the delta between interest rates in Australia and New Zealand and also the trade war between China and the US.
Australian dollar to New Zealand dollar forecasts
The AUD might break through recent resistance around 0.7340 over the next weeks. A clearcut Biden win and further positive COVID-19 vaccine news could help drive the AUD towards new highs closer to 0.74 US cents. The NZD followed a similar pattern to the AUD after the US election, benefiting from increased market appetite for risk and breaking through 0.68 US cents to mark fresh 20-month highs. The NZD also outperformed against other counterparts, surging nearly 3% against the yen, while testing new highs against the euro and GBP. The currency remains trading against AUD within the 0.93 and 0.95 mediumterm range.
