NZD/USD steadies after election results, RBNZ inflation warning: Nov 10, 2026
The New Zealand dollar steadied after jumping to 0.5600 following initial election results, with traders awaiting the outcome of a tight vote. Focus has stayed on the RBNZ after its chief economist said inflation is still too high and inflation expectations are concerning, and the bank said sustained New Zealand dollar depreciation has fuelled inflation, an RBNZ stance analysts say the election outcome supports.
