NZD/USD is currently trading at 0.6693 with a high of 0.6723 and a low of 0.6672.
NZD/USD has remained relatively stable in thin markets, despite the US GDP figures coming out and beating previous estimates. The US economy has expanded at an annualized pace of 1.4% during the last three months of the last year, vs. forecasts at 1.0%, leaving risk on the table for a Fed hike in April or June. Next week, we get key data in PCE first and then nonfarm payrolls.
