AUD/NZD recovers over 1 big figure post RBA decision
Currently, the AUD/NZD pair trades 0.76% higher at fresh session highs of 1.0681, recovering daily lows struck at 1.0542 in last hours. The AUD/NZD cross staged a solid comeback and extends higher, as the Australian dollar was boosted across the board after the RBA left its interest rates on hold while acknowledging improved economic conditions.
While the NZD/USD pair is seen trading with mild gains and appears to cap further upside in the AUD/NZD cross. Last week, RBNZ also made no changes to its monetary policy settings and remained in a wait-and-see mode.
