The New Zealand dollar fell against the U.S. currency on the back of yesterday’s more dovish official cash rate announcement, the U.S. debt ceiling deadlock, and reemerging European sovereign concerns.

The kiwi dollar initially moved higher yesterday on the back of Governor Alan Bollard’s comments that the bank was looking to remove the emergency 50-basis point earthquake stimulus by March, but upwards moves were capped by a warning that the high currency was having a negative impact on the economy.

“The Reserve Bank’s comments that they were preparing to remove rate cut continued to provide support for kiwi, but statement that the high dollar acting as a drag on economy has seen markets rethink how high rates will go,” said Khoon Goh, head of market economics and strategy at ANZ New Zealand.

FXstreet.com’s analyst Valeria Bednarik says in the article below that the UK “monetary independence is both a blessing and a curse”, good point given the problems over the Eurozone periphery.
