The economic data out of New Zealand has been disappointing in recent weeks and this mornings adjusted GDP data is no exception. The NZD/USD has fallen 50 pips on the news.

    Sean- Howdy from the hinterland! We’ve all heard of the summer doldrums but the NZD/USD price action following the NZ GDP is more like “dead in the water”- Look at the volume on the pair?!! What are those pesky dealers up too? Have they all stepped out of the trading room for a quick smoke? I know you probably have an accurate explanation, could you convey some insight? Thanks in advance- kprich

    Hi KP. Sorry I was bored and I took a long break. I think there are only 3 interbank kiwi dealers left in the world and they probably are heavy smokers and everything else as well. You’d need to be to trade it. Sam is an ex-interbank kiwi dealer. Explains a lot!
