The NZD/USD pair reversed early gains after briefly trading above the 0.5890 mark, pressured by its failure to hold momentum near the 20-day SMA. After reaching an intraday high, sellers regained control, driving the pair lower in a move reflecting waning optimism around the New Zealand dollar.
Market participants are closely watching upcoming U.S. economic data, which could influence the Federal Reserve’s rate outlook and weigh on risk-sensitive assets like the kiwi. The pair remains vulnerable to further declines, with traders eyeing 0.5860 as a key support level.
