This implies a slight upside risk to the full-year GDP growth forecast for 2026. Economists expect economic growth to rebound to 0.3% in the first quarter of this year, benefiting from the gradual fading of tariff headwinds and Germanys increasing fiscal stimulus. They pointed out that initial signs of increased government spending have begun to emerge, including a widening budget deficit and rising factory orders for defense-related products. UBS projects German GDP growth of 1.1% in 2026 and 1.7% in 2027, meaning Germany is poised to become the Eurozones growth leader by 2027.January 16th - Analysts say Apples first foldable phone, the iPhone Fold, will be released this September, debuting the A20 Pro chip alongside the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max. The A20 Pro chip will reportedly use TSMCs new 2nm process, offering a 15% performance improvement and a 30% energy efficiency increase compared to the A19. It will also utilize WMCM (Wafer-Level Multi-Chip Module) technology, integrating memory, CPU, GPU, and NPU onto a single wafer, eliminating the need for a silicon interposer to separate memory from the chip.

NZD/USD Price Analysis: Protects NZ Inflation-Induced Support Break; 0.6140 in Sight

During the mid-Asian session on Thursday, NZD/USD bears maintain control at the lowest levels in five weeks while defending New Zealand (NZ) losses caused by inflation near 0.6160. This justifies not only the weaker-than-anticipated New Zealand inflation, but also the recent break of one-month-old horizontal support, which is now immediate resistance, as well as the bearish MACD signals.

 

As measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI), the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) policy purists were unpleasantly surprised by New Zealand's (NZ) first-quarter (Q1) inflation. Despite this, the Quarter-over-Quarter change in the New Zealand Consumer Price Index (CPI) decreases from 1.7% and 1.4%, respectively, to 1.2%.

 

Following the publication of disappointing data, the NZD/USD pair breached a one-month-old horizontal support level, which is now acting as a barrier near 0.6170. The bearish MACD signals are now directing NZD/USD traders toward a horizontal support level that has been in place for 1.5 months and is located near 0.6140.

 

If the NZD/USD bears remain dominant above 0.6140, the 2023 low of 0.6085 cannot be ruled out.

 

The 200-day simple moving average hurdle of 0.6220 becomes crucial for NZD/USD investors to return.

 

If the NZD/USD pair remains above 0.6220, a run up to the previous weekly high around 0.6315 and then to the monthly high of 0.6386 cannot be ruled out.
