May 6th - Bond traders are increasing their bets that the Federal Reserves next policy move will likely be a rate hike rather than a rate cut. Swap contracts linked to central bank interest rate decisions currently show that the market expects a greater than 50% probability of a Fed rate hike before April next year, prior to any rate cut. More and more traders are also increasing their positions to hedge against the risk of a rising probability of a rate hike before the end of the year. This shift in market conditions comes as policymakers appear increasingly divided on the interest rate outlook. Lawrence Gillum, chief fixed income strategist at LPL Financial, believes that the possibility of a rate cut this year still exists, but this probability will gradually decrease as the conflict with Iran continues. He stated, "Theres no doubt that Warshs path forward will be challenging."Lucid Group (LCID.O) executives: Due to geopolitical conflicts, there were some delays in the delivery of equipment to the Saudi factory, but the team has successfully mitigated the situation.According to the UAEs national news agency, the UAE president received phone calls from several leaders, including Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, who condemned Irans attack on the UAE and expressed their support for the measures the UAE has taken to maintain security.AMD (AMD.O) shares rose more than 11% in after-hours trading.ChatGPT has announced its availability as a plugin for Excel and Google Sheets.

NZDUSD consolidates near 0.6100, closing below Friday's two-month peak

The NZDUSD pair struggles to capitalize on last week's breakthrough momentum through the 100-day Simple Moving Average, bouncing between moderate gains and slight losses throughout Monday's early European session. The pair is currently trading slightly below the 0.6100 level, practically flat on the day, and remains close to Friday's two-month high.

 

A convergence of variables permits the US Dollar to stabilize at its lowest level since mid-August, acting as a headwind for the NZDUSD pair. In response to Christopher Waller's more hawkish remarks on Sunday, U.S. Treasury bond yields rise. It is expected that this, along with a softer tone on equity markets, will benefit the safe-haven dollar and exert some downward pressure on the risk-averse New Zealand dollar.

 

Waller indicated during a conversation in Sydney, Australia, that the markets had overreacted to October's weaker-than-expected consumer price inflation numbers. Waller stated that the Federal Reserve was not lessening its fight against inflation and that a string of moderate CPI readings would be required for the US central bank to soften its approach. This increases US Treasury bond yields and helps support USD demand, notwithstanding the lack of confidence in the intraday rise.

 

A greater possibility that the Federal Reserve will slow the pace of its policy tightening discourages USD bulls from placing risky trades. Moreover, optimism surrounding a likely rollback of COVID-19 measures in China supports the NZD/USD pair and restricts its downside. Therefore, the subdued intraday price movement can be characterized as a bullish consolidation phase, meaning that any significant pullback is likely to be purchased and remain confined.

 

The United States is not slated to provide any market-moving economic data on Monday, leaving the USD at the mercy of US bond yields. Traders will also consider Lael Brainard's anticipated Fed governor address. Together with the broader risk sentiment, this will be analyzed for short-term trading opportunities in the NZDUSD pair prior to the release of Chinese economic data on Tuesday.
