NZD/USD is drifting down the river

FXStreet (Moscow) - NZD/USD has retreated from its daily high of 0.8636 and settled at 0.8621

If the RBNZ pauses

The growing expectations of the RBNZ slowing the pace of tightening may continue to weigh on the pair in the near-term up until the June, 12 meeting. The combination of weak inflation and the high exchange rate of kiwi is a strong argument to reassess its monetary outlook. RBNZ inflation expectations scheduled for release on Thursday may bring some interesting development for the pair. The kiwi is trading not far away from the strong support level at 0.8630, and if the break below is confirmed, the sell-off may gather the pace with the next target at 0.8600 support level.
