GBP/NZD

The UK Pound’s future depends on the deal that will be presented by Theresa May for the Brexit Negotiation. The UK is due to leave the European Union on March 29, 2019, 2 years after the historical referendum vote where the British people decided to leave the bloc. The deal will also outline how the UK will partner with the EU and other countries when it comes to trade. We might see a stronger or weaker pound until a Brexit Deal or a No Deal Brexit will be presented.

 

USD/CNH

The pair was heading to its historical high last December 28, 2016. There are three (3) catalysts for the strengthening US Dollar and weaker Chinese Yuan namely (1) the Devaluation of the Chinese Yuan, (2) the Internationalization of the Chinese Yuan, (3) the Trade War between the United States and China. Expect a weaker Yuan as the Chinese economy began to felt the impact of Tariffs.

USD/TRY

The US Dollar had been rallying since the pair started to trade and a “Blow-Off  Top” or a possible correction in the price was happening at the current moment. The move happened after a US Pastor had been arrested for the accusation of a Coup attempt against the Turkish Government. The ties between the US and the Turkish were seen improving after the release of the pastor and possible cooperation between the 2 governments with the investigation of Jamal Khashoggi.

EUR/BRL

The Euro had been falling as uncertainty over the European Union makes investors prefer the Emerging Market’s currency, particularly the Brazilian Real. Although most of the Emerging Markets like Turkey and Argentina had been affected by the current Tariff War between the United States and China, Brazil was less exposed to either the US or China which makes it more attractive.
