Credit Suisse say they are turning bearish on the New Zealand Dollar and other ‘commodity’ currencies as they now see limited prospects for additional monetary policy support and a deteriorating Chinese growth outlook.

“We turn bearish on AUD and NZD,” says Shahab Jalinoos, Global Head of FX Strategy at Credit Suisse in a research note out May 04.

The call by the Swiss investment bank comes in the wake of a soft April for the New Zealand Dollar which failed to benefit from a 50 basis point rate hike at the Reserve Bank of New Zealand.

April’s was the fourth interest rate rise from the RBNZ since the coronavirus crisis and comes as part of an effort by the Bank to rein in inflation by withdrawing monetary stimulus from the New Zealand economy.

New Zealand Dollar: USD

The New Zealand Dollar lost 2.78% in value to the British Pound in April, against the U.S. Dollar those losses were a more substantial 6.87%.

That the NZ Dollar is not responding to aggressive RBNZ hike expectations is instructive as to the outlook.

    Analyst Alvise Marino at Credit Suisse says the Reserve Bank of New Zealand has surprised sharply on the hawkish side of market expectations, leading rates markets to price in even more aggressive policy tightening schedules than before.

    Japan to Buy Yen

    Japan intervened in the foreign exchange market on Thursday to buy the yen for the first time since 1998, in an attempt to shore up the battered currency after the Bank of Japan stuck with ultra-low interest rates.

    The move, which occurred in late Asia hours, saw the dollar plunge more than 2% to around 140.3 yen. There were no subsequent signs of further intervention or help for the BOJ from other central banks and the dollar was last around 1.2% lower at 142.31 yen at 1421 ET/1821 GMT.

    It had traded more than 1% higher on the BOJ’s decision to stick to its super-loose policy stance, bucking a global tide of monetary tightening by central banks fighting soaring inflation.

    “We have taken decisive action,” vice finance minister for international affairs Masato Kanda told reporters, responding in the affirmative when asked if that meant intervention.

    Analysts, however, doubted whether the move would halt the yen’s prolonged slide for long.

    The currency has depreciated nearly 20% this year, sinking to 24-year lows, largely as aggressive U.S. interest rate hikes push the dollar higher.

    The latest coronavirus variant keeps spreading around, and it will take some time for actual economic effects to appear in the official data. However, there is some info about overall tendencies across certain industries.

    Consider a mobility index constructed by The Economist, which includes visits to workplaces, retail and recreation sites, transport hubs. It’s been stable in America (though lower compared to pre-pandemic norms) and has fallen a little in Britain and Germany. According to other data from The Economist, Omicron may have led to trip cancellations and quite a few hardships for the hospitality industry.
