We have recently changed our Fundamental bias on the NZD to bullish due to an improvement in the domestic and monetary policy outlook.
However, in the short-term, the NZD has been pressured due to the increased risks and fears of contagion from the lethal Coronavirus.
As far as viruses go, the SARS outbreak in 2003 only shaved off about 0.1% from New Zealand’s GDP. But, it’s important to remember that back 2003 New Zealand only sent 5% of their exports to China which has recently increased to 28% as of 2019.
Thus, the economic risks that the virus pose is a real threat and something that’ll be on the RBNZ’s radar and an important consideration for us to keep in mind.
In terms of data, this week we get the Q4 Jobs Report and quarterly inflation expectations for New Zealand, both of which can create some tradable short-term volatility.
