1-3 WEEKS VIEW: "We indicated yesterday (15 Jan, spot at 0.5620) that “although there has been a slight increase in momentum, NZD must break and remain above 0.5650 before a move to 0.5695 is likely.” There is no change in our view. The likelihood of NZD breaking clearly above 0.5650 will remain intact, provided that it remains above 0.5580 (‘strong support’ level)."
