EUR/NZD approaches 2.0000 after RBNZ's cautious rate hike
The EUR/NZD currency pair is nearing the 2.0000 mark following the Reserve Bank of New Zealand's (RBNZ) recent decision to raise the Official Cash Rate by 25 basis points to 2.75%. Despite the hike, the New Zealand Dollar (NZD) weakened due to the RBNZ's cautious tone on future rate increases, which disappointed traders expecting a more aggressive tightening cycle. This dovish stance has provided the Euro (EUR) with an opportunity to strengthen against the NZD.
