USD Strength Signals Downside for NZD/USD

11 พ.ย.

Trump’s re-election has led to renewed confidence in the U.S. dollar, as investors anticipate a continuation of his "America First" policies, which prioritize U.S. economic growth, job creation, and support for domestic industries. These measures are seen as attractive for U.S. investments, pushing demand for the dollar higher.

Additionally, Trump’s efforts to promote peace and reduce foreign conflicts—like aiming to ease tensions in the Middle East and discussing peace between Russia and Ukraine—diminish the need for safe-haven assets like gold. With less global uncertainty, investors shift away from gold and into dollar-based assets, further strengthening the USD.

Finally, if inflation rises due to increased domestic spending, the Federal Reserve may hike interest rates, making the dollar even more appealing to investors worldwide. These factors collectively support a bullish outlook for the USD while putting pressure on competing currencies like the NZD.
