Top Gainers and Losers: New Zealand Dollar and Japanese Yen

3/3/2023

Top Gainers - global market

Over the past 7 days, the US dollar index slightly corrected down after 4 weeks of continuous growth. Investors are waiting for new economic information that will help predict the Fed rate change (4.75%) at the next meeting on March 22. According to CME FedWatch, the rate could be increased by 0.25% with a 69% chance. On March 10, significant data on the labor market United States Nonfarm Payrolls for February will be released. Natural gas in the US has risen in price due to the gradual reopening of the Freeport LNG export terminal in Texas, which was damaged by a fire last year. The New Zealand dollar strengthened on the back of an increase in the Reserve Bank of New Zealand rate to 4.75% from 4.25%. Recall that inflation in New Zealand in the 4th quarter of 2022 reached 7.2% y/y. Data for the 1st quarter of 2023 will be released on April 19. The weakening of the Japanese yen contributed to the preliminary data on the decline in industrial production in January. In addition, inflation in Tokyo in February significantly decreased to 3.4% y/y from 4.4% in January. Investors do not rule out that this may prompt the Bank of Japan to maintain a negative rate (-0.1%) at a meeting on March 10.
