AUD/NZD plummets to near 1.0500 as RBA hikes interest rates by 50 bps

  • A sheer downside move has resulted in a fresh two-week low at 1.1050 for AUD/NZD.
  • The announcement of an OCR hike by 50 bps is in line with the expectations.
  • This week, the NZ employment data will remain in focus.

The AUD/NZD pair has dropped swiftly after the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) announced a rate hike by 50 basis points (bps) in the Asian session. The announcement has remained in line with the estimates and the Official Cash Rate (OCR) has stepped up to 1.85%.

To contain price pressures, RBA Governor Philip Lowe has tightened the monetary policy further. The inflation rate in Australia has increased to 6.1% in the second quarter of CY2022 much higher than the prior figure of 5.1%. A higher inflation rate is likely to persist for longer, however, the RBA is committed to bringing price stability to the economy.

On the NZ front, investors are focusing on the release of the employment data, which is due on Wednesday. The employment data is expected to remain upbeat as the Employment Change is likely to improve significantly to 0.4% from the prior print of 0.1%. Also, the Unemployment Rate is expected to trim to 3.1% vs. 3.2% in the previous figure.

One thing is worth considering that the Labor Cost Index is expecting an improvement to 1.1% from 0.7% on a quarterly basis. The inflation rate is sky-rocketing in the kiwi zone and households need higher paychecks to offset the higher consumer expenditure.

Upozorenje o rizicima

Izvršenje trgovinskih operacija sa finansijskim instrumentima upotrebom marginalne trgovine pruža velike mogućnosti i omogućava investitorima ostvarivanje visokih prihoda. Međutim, takav vid trgovine povezan je sa potencijalno visokim nivoom rizika od gubitka sredstava. Проведение торговых операций на финанcовых рынках c маржинальными финанcовыми инcтрументами открывает широкие возможноcти, и позволяет инвеcторам, готовым пойти на риcк, получать выcокую прибыль, но при этом неcет в cебе потенциально выcокий уровень риcка получения убытков. Iz tog razloga je pre započinjanja trgovine potrebno odlučiti o izboru odgovarajuće investicione strategije, uzimajući u obzir raspoložive resurse.
