NZD/USD remains bearish after breaking below 0.58, with weak risk appetite, energy concerns, and US dollar strength keeping pressure on the Kiwi.
The NZD/USD is the quote for the New Zealand Dollar, the base currency, quoted against the US Dollar, the quote currency.
NZD is the national currency of New Zealand and the legal tender of the Cook Islands, Niue, the Ross Dependency, Tokelau, and the British territory of the Pitcairn Islands. The New Zealand Dollar became the national currency of New Zealand in 1967, when it replaced the New Zealand Pound and its complex pounds, shillings, and pence system, or £sd, stemming from the Latin librae, solidi, and denarii.
July 10th, 1967, is Decimal Currency Day in New Zealand, the day the NZD and its decimal system replaced the New Zealand Pound at a rate of 2:1. The Reserve Bank of New Zealand printed approximately 27 million new banknotes and 165 million new coins for the changeover.
The New Zealand Dollar belongs to commodity currencies, referring to national currencies that move with commodity prices. Soft commodity prices can impact the New Zealand Dollar due to its exports of meat, dairy, fisheries, and wine, the top four exports, followed by forestry. New Zealand ranks among the most globalized economies, dependent on trade with China, Australia, the EU, the US, and Japan.

The New Zealand dollar has fallen a bit during the trading session on Friday as we are looking to the 0.5850 level, an area that has offered support a couple of times recently. Ultimately, if we can break down below there, we could see a test of the 0.58 level, and I think it’s possible that we have a “zone of support” in this region. Breaking down below that would be a very ugly turn of events, and it is worth noting that the New Zealand dollar has completely fallen apart over the last couple of days, and things are getting a little overdone.
