- The brighter market sentiment is weighing the US Dollar.
The New Zealand Dollar’s bearish momentum has lost stream although price action is struggling to find acceptance above the 0.6125/35 resistance area so far.
The improved market sentiment is providing some support to the Kiwi on Friday. Most European markets are going through moderate advances and Wall Street futures are pointing to a positive opening, which is weighing on the Safe-haven USD.
