Currency news and forecasts for Australian Dollar and New Zealand Dollar
Whenever you are researching a particular exchange rate you are actually interested in two currencies as the value of a currency must always be quoted relative to a second currency.
So it follows that if you are determining the best time to transact, in this case the AUD vs NZD, you should pay attention to both Australian Dollar and New Zealand Dollar news and forecasts.
Australian Dollar (AUD) - Market news and forecasts
19-February-19: Since a flash crash in early January which saw the Australian dollar briefly trade at a 10-year low, the Aussie has recovered and then stabilized in the US71-72¢ region, near the average rate of the past 6 months.
Of late, the outlook for the Australian economy, and therefore for the Australian dollar, has taken a turn for the worse: the RBA has slashed growth and inflation forecasts and markets have moved to price in a near-100 percent chance of an interest rate cut before the year is out.
In February, HSBC cut its AUD/USD forecast to just US66¢, nearly 20 percent below 2018’s high of US81.36¢. AUD rates in the mid-60s haven’t been seen since the great financial crisis a decade ago.
In January, a senior researcher at BNP Paribas said that the Australian dollar would “get absolutely crucified and could suffer a 25-30 percent [long-term] fall.”
Also in January, Capital Economics cuts its AUD/USD year-end forecast to just US60¢.
New Zealand Dollar (NZD) - Market news and forecasts
28-January-19: The New Zealand dollar has begun 2019 well, with small gains against the US dollar ($0.683) and euro (€0.598). The kiwi remains, however, at relatively low levels by the standards of recent years: in percentage terms, it remains down double digits from 2017 highs relative to USD and EUR.
Several months ago, a good portion of analysts agreed that the kiwi was heading higher in 2019 but, as with the Australian dollar, things have changed. In recent months, investors have become increasingly certain that interest rates in New Zealand will stay at a record low of 1.75 percent for a prolonged period. Inaction on interest rates will force capital away from New Zealand and towards countries where rates are higher or are expected to increase.
Those with a need to consider seriously the future value (6-12 months) of New Zealand’s currency should not underestimate how highly correlated it is with the Australian dollar. Though they flex somewhat against each other, against other major currencies, the Antipodes usually move hand in hand. With that said, readers should be worried about a flurry of grim AUD forecasts coming in early 2019. Among such forecasts was that by a BNP Paribas analyst, who predicted that AUD would get “absolutely crucified,” and that by Capital Economics, which predicted a 16 percent AUD decline.
