Fundamental Overview:

NZD/USD is expected to consolidate with a bearish bias after hitting one-year low at 0.8040 on Tuesday. It is undermined by the Fonterra Co-Operative Group Ltd. lowering its forecast for payouts to farmers to NZ$5.30 per kilogram of milk solids from a prior forecast of NZ$6.00 and signaling further downside risk amid declines in global dairy prices , Kiwi sales on soft NZD/JPY cross amid increased investor risk aversion and Kiwi sales on rebounding AUD/NZD cross. But NZD sentiment are soothed by the narrower-than-expected New Zealand August trade deficit of NZ$472 million (versus forecast NZ$1.1 billion deficit). NZD/USD losses are also tempered by the NZD-USD interest differential.
