LME three-month copper fell 3.74% to $14,222 per tonne, after hitting an intraday record high of $14,875 per tonne. On Thursday, COMEX October copper futures fell 5% to $6.481 per pound (approximately $14,288 per tonne), narrowing the premium relative to LME prices. Ole Hansen, head of strategy at Saxo Bank, commented on the Reuters tariff report, saying that this latest news undoubtedly triggered significant market volatility.

This indicates that as Republicans struggle to retain their majority in Congress, Trump has begun to envision a governing strategy in a "divided government" scenario. Trump said, "Things will be different. Ill be a blocker, what else can I say? However, I might be able to make a deal with them (the Democrats). Theyll have demands, and you can make a deal with them. Thats often how it is." Trump also stated that this election is not as "difficult" as previous campaigns.

Analysis of the NZD/USD Price indicates a continuation of gains towards 0.65

The NZD/USD pair is oscillating within a narrow range near 0.6430 in the early Asian session. Despite the market's risk aversion, the New Zealand dollar has traded sideways after reclaiming the monthly high of 0.6437. In reaction to Tom Barkin's hawkish comments about the Richmond Federal Reserve (Fed) Bank, S&P500 futures are exhibiting greater losses, indicating investors' diminishing appetite for risk.

 

Following a V-shaped recovery, the US Dollar Index (DXY) has turned sideways at 102,000 and is expected to extend gains on a risk aversion theme. In addition, higher 10-year US Treasury yields would certainly provide safe-haven investments a new lease of life.

 

After one hour of consolidation, the NZD/USD pair has broken out of the Bullish Pennant chart pattern, indicating that the rising trend will continue. Participants typically initiate long positions during the consolidation period of a chart pattern, preferring to enter an auction once a bullish bias has been established.

 

Adding to the upward filters, the 20-period and 50-period Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) have resumed their upward trend at 0.6415 and 0.6401, respectively.

 

Meanwhile, the Relative Strength Index (14) continues to struggle to enter the positive zone between 60.00 and 80.00. The occurrence of a similar event will produce bullish momentum.

 

For greater gains, the Kiwi asset must beat Tuesday's high of 0.6439, which will rocket it to December 15's high of 0.6470, then December 13's high of 0.6514.

 

Alternately, a breach below Monday's low of 0.6361 will weaken the New Zealand Dollar and push the Kiwi asset towards January 12's low of 0.6304. A breach below this level will expose the asset to more losses approaching the low of 0.6263 on December 28.
