“With NZD/USD having broken the 0.65 level, and very few positive catalysts on the horizon, there’s a risk that we could see a decline to 0.61-0.62 (2015 lows) on the back of rising US Treasury yields in the coming months.”

“For now, we think NZD/USD will spend most of its time below 0.65 in 4Q18 – with investors retaining a sell on rallies bias.”
