NZD hit by falling inflation expectations
The falling inflation expectations in New Zealand weakened the Kiwi against the US dollar.
The NZD/USD pair traded 0.48% lower at 0.7824 levels at the time of writing. The kiwi came under pressure after the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) data showed inflation expectations cooled down to 2.1% in the third quarter, compared to the previous quarter’s reading of 2.2%.
Meanwhile, the greenback trades strong ahead of the second estimate of the US Q3 GDP. A better-than-expected US GDP today could further weaken the Kiwi against the US dollar.
