What The FX!!

Its been a crazy week on the markets, mainly driven by the mental events in Christchurch. Also fresh concerns over mounting tension in the Middle East have taken centre stage, helping to deflect some of the spotlight off current European worries, at least for the time being. This has seen a decline in the US equity markets, but a strengthening EUR and USD.

On the domestic front, the Kiwi was hammered due to Tuesdays events, but has held its ground surprisingly well after its initial fall. It has found a support level at .7430 which has been tested three times (see graph).
