NZDUSD
The New Zealand dollar advanced sharply against the US dollar on Wednesday, with NZD/USD changing hands around 0.5930 at the time of writing. That marked a gain of 0.96% on the day.
The move was driven mainly by broad weakness in the US dollar rather than a New Zealand-specific catalyst. A sharp decline in US Treasury yields reduced the appeal of the greenback, supporting the kiwi.
