November 30th - OPEC+ is about to hold a meeting to assess the global oil market. Given the increasingly apparent signs of oversupply, the alliances oil-producing countries are still expected to pause supply increases in the first quarter of next year. Several representatives indicated that the Saudi- and Russian-led alliance is likely to adhere to the plan reached earlier this month to make a modest production increase in December, followed by stable production levels for the first three months of next year. While this pause demonstrates some caution from OPEC and its partners after their rapid resumption of oil production earlier this year, it still leaves the global market facing a significant oversupply in early 2026, potentially putting further pressure on oil prices.Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced that he has appointed former Ukrainian Ambassador to the United States, Irina Markarova, as his advisor on reconstruction and investment.On November 30th, Canadian Solar announced that it plans to adjust its US market business by establishing two new joint ventures, M and N, with its controlling shareholder, Canadian Solar Inc.

Despite a stable DXY and a hawkish RBNZ stance, NZD/USD bulls tinker around 0.5700

On Wednesday morning, NZD/USD bulls struggle to keep control during the three-day uptrend, making minor gains above 0.5700. The market's sluggish performance in light of the dormant US Dollar Index (DXY) and the risk-on stance is reflected in this. However, buyers remain upbeat due to the hawkish view for the Reserve Bank of New Zealand's (RBNZ) upcoming action.

 

Following the announcement of New Zealand's (NZ) Q3 Consumer Price Index, several banks increased their favorable forecasts for the RBNZ's upcoming action (CPI).

 

However, against the market's expectation of 1.6% and the prior data of 1.6%, New Zealand's Q3 CPI jumped to 2.2%. The data also showed that the YoY CPI increased to 7.2% from 7.2% earlier and 6.6% as was predicted. The Australia and New Zealand Banking Group (ANZ) said, based on the information: "The RBNZ will need to take action as core inflation continues to remain entrenched and shows no signs of turning the corner. We expect the OCR to rise by 75 basis points to 5% in November and February."

 

The risk-on attitude is also helping the NZD/ascent elsewhere. In keeping with Wall Street's second straight day of gains, USD's S&P 500 Futures rise 0.80% intraday, while the US Dollar Index (DXY) holds steady near 112.00 and US 10-year Treasury yields fluctuate around the 4.00% level.

 

News reports about the battle of Russian forces in Ukraine and UK Chancellor Jeremy Hunt's ability to fend off the impacts of the recession appear to be the main drivers of the recent market optimism.

 

It should be noted that despite risk-on attitude and sluggish Treasury rates, the DXY does not increase in response to improved industrial production and aggressive Fed statements. Neel Kashkari, president of the Minneapolis Federal Reserve Bank, recently said: "Until I see persuasive evidence that core inflation has at least peaked, I am not willing to pause rate hikes."

 

Future Fed speakers will join housing-related secondary US data to thrill NZD/USD speculators. However, barring any risk-averse surprises or unexpected RBNZ pronouncements, the Kiwi-Dollar pair is likely to continue strengthening.
