NZD/USD bias turned weak bullish on October 9, 2026
NZD/USD has drifted toward 18-month lows near 0.5580 and has been moving sideways as the US dollar stabilizes amid rising bond yields. The pair edged higher when US yields softened, though Fed hike expectations capped the move around 0.5630, while broader sentiment is being tested by Iran-related risk and 5.35% yields.
