Analysts at Westpac suggested that the outlook for next 24 hours is with a strong US dollar that is going to be keeping NZD/USD contained, with a neutral bias today in the low 0.71’s. "NZD/USD 1-3 month: Targets 0.6950 or lower as long as the RBNZ cuts to 1.75% in November and the Fed tightens to 0.625% in December, as we expect," added the analysts for a longer-term view.
