•RBNZ Governor Anna Breman said in speech notes from Dunedin that the economic recovery was expected to gain strength and become more broad-based, helped by exports and a gradual pickup in household spending.

• The central bank raised its main cash rate by 25 basis points to 2.75% at its September policy meeting, but signaled a more gradual pace of further tightening than many market participants had expected.

• The RBNZ meets on October 28 and markets imply a 75% chance that it will raise rates again to 3%.

•  Immediate resistance is located at 0.5772(50%fib), any close above will push the pair towards 0.5836(SMA20)
