  • The pair resumed upside after brief correction and is currently hovering around major trendline resistance at 1.6240.
     
  • We see further upside on decisive break above. Scope then for test of 1.6469 (June 7, 2016 high).
     
  • Kiwi dented after New Zealand Treasury's bearish GDP forecasts.
     
  • Treasury expects the RBNZ to kick-off tightening in mid-2018. The Treasury also sees a smaller surplus in 2019-21 on lower growth.
     
  • Some profit taking likely in the Euro after run-up ahead of the Jackson Hole Symposium.
     
  • There are chances that ECB's Draghi could disappoint market participants by not touching upon the central bank's tapering plans.
