We made no forecast last week.

This week, we forecast that the AUD/NZD pair will fall in value.

This week saw strength in the USD, and the greatest relative weaknesses were in the NZD, CAD, JPY and EUR, in that order.

Volatility was higher than the previous week. Approximately half of the major and minor currency pairs changed in value by more than 1%. Volatility is likely to be lower this this week as there are central bank events scheduled only for the NZD.
