A Reuters poll showed that 36 out of 37 economists expect the Bank of Korea to raise its benchmark interest rate to 2.75% at its July 16 meeting. 28 out of 31 economists expect the Bank of Korea to raise the benchmark interest rate to 3.00% by the end of the year.As of 8:30 on July 14, 2026, WTI crude oil, Brent crude oil and other commodities saw the largest fluctuations.

The bank will announce its policy decision later this week. The minutes repeatedly stressed the side effects of rising borrowing costs, widely seen as a way for the committee to signal an impending policy adjustment while minimizing market volatility. For example, in the minutes of its June 2022 meeting, the committee stated that "it is necessary to assess whether corporate credit demand will remain strong in the context of rising interest rates." Approximately three weeks later, the central bank implemented its first-ever 50-basis-point interest rate hike. This time, the minutes followed a similar pattern, providing new clues about the direction of monetary policy ahead of Thursdays interest rate decision. The committee warned that as borrowing costs rise, the financial difficulties of vulnerable sectors will inevitably worsen; while providing fiscal support, financial institutions should strengthen loan reviews, and companies should also proceed with restructuring.July 14 - According to Iranian media reports on the 14th, the headquarters of the U.S. Navys Fifth Fleet in Bahrain was attacked by Iranian missiles.

NZD/USD Price Analysis: Nears 0.6480 barrier on generally encouraging China inflation data

During the four-day upswing, NZD/USD accepts bids to retest the daily high near 0.6410 on Friday morning. As well as the technical breakout, recent advances in the NZD/USD pair may be attributable to China's monthly inflation report.

 

In November, the headline Consumer Price Index (CPI) for China decreased to -0.2% MoM, compared to 0.1% predicted and 0.1% earlier. However, the annual statistics were more robust, coming in at 1.6% as opposed to 1.0% as predicted by the market and 2.2% previously. On the same line, the Producer Price Index (PPI) improved to -1.3% YoY during the specified month, defying predictions of -1.5% and earlier readings of -1.3%.

 

Notable is the NZD/USD pair's extended breach of a two-week-long descending trend line, which combines with a stronger RSI and positive MACD signals to keep buyers seeking the monthly high near 0.6480.

 

If NZD/USD bulls prevail beyond 0.6480, the round number 0.6500 and June's high near 0.6575 may appear on their radars.

 

Alternately, around 0.6355 at the time of writing, the resistance-turned-support line predates the 50-day simple moving average (SMA) at 0.6330 to limit the near-term NZD/USD decline.

 

However, a convergence of the 100-SMA and an upward-sloping trend line from November 21, close to 0.6255, appears to be a difficult nut to crack for the Kiwi pair bears and is the key to their admission.
