FxWirePro: NZD/USD loses momentum but outlook is bullish

• NZD/USD   edged lower on Thursday   as greenback firmed as  traders took the escalation in stride even though investors remain concerned about the Fed's independence under President Donald Trump.

•   Trump said he has no immediate plans to remove Powell despite an ongoing Justice Department investigation, but noted it was “too early” to determine the eventual outcome.

• U.S. data on Wednesday indicated a modest pickup in producer prices in November, driven by higher gasoline prices, as retail sales beat expectations..

• Recent data have solidified expectations that the Fed will stay on hold in January, while markets continue to see two rate cuts this year, though not before Powell’s tenure concludes in May.

•  Immediate resistance is located at 0.5781(SMA 20), any close above will push the pair towards 0.5789(50%fib).

•Support is seen at 0.5714 (Lower BB) and break below could take the pair towards 0.5699(38.2%fib).

 Recommendation: Good to buy around 0.5730 with stop loss of 0.5650 and target price of 0.5830
