Fundamental Consideration (1):
What: Fed Chair Powell Speaks (Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell)

When: Wednesday 17 July (05h00 NZ time)

Description: Due to deliver a speech titled "Aspects of Monetary Policy in the Post-Crisis Era" at the French G7 Presidency 2019, in Paris

Why Traders care: Volatility is often experienced during his speeches as traders attempt to decipher interest rate clues. As head of the central bank, which controls short term interest rates, he has more influence over the nation's currency value than any other person. Traders scrutinize his public engagements as they are often used to drop subtle clues regarding future monetary policy

Impact Level: HIGH

What to do: Should you expect a negative impact on this trade, consider hedging your trade.


Fundamental Consideration (2):
What: Consumer Price Index (CPI) New Zealand. Change in the price of goods and services purchased by consumers

When: Tuesday 16 July (10h45 NZ time)

Description: This is extremely late relative to inflation data from other countries, but it's the primary gauge of consumer prices and tends to create hefty market impacts.

Why Traders care: Consumer prices account for a majority of overall inflation. Inflation is important to currency valuation because rising prices lead the central bank to raise interest rates out of respect for their inflation containment mandate.

Impact Level: HIGH

What to do: Should you expect a negative impact on this trade, consider hedging your trade.
