New Zealand rate decision: Wednesday, 1:00. The Reserve Bank of New Zealand has already cut interest rates by 0.75% this year after a long period of stagnation and may do it again — slashing another 25 basis points and setting the Official Cash Rate at 0.75%. The rise of the unemployment rate to 4.2% has worried policymakers in Wellington. The rate cut is not fully priced in by markets so that any outcome may cause jitters not only in NZD/USD but also in other jurisdictions.

UK CPI: Wednesday, 9:30. Falling energy prices and an increase in the value of the pound imply another deceleration in inflation — from 1.7% to 1.6% in the report for October. Such a drop would justify the BOE’s newly-adopted dovish stance. The bank targets a rate of 2%. Core Consumer Price Index is set to remain unchanged at 1.7%, while the Retail Price Index is predicted to drop from 2.4% to 2.2%.

US CPI: Wednesday, 13:30. While the Federal Reserve has cited lower inflation as one of the main reasons for cutting interest rates, prices have picked up. Core CPI has accelerated to 2.4% as of September and is forecast to remain at that level once again in October. Any deviation is set to rock the dollar and feeds into the next event.

Powell testifies Wednesday, and Thursday at 15:00. Jerome Powell, Chairman of the Federal Reserve, has signaled a pause after cutting rates for the third time in a row. However, the bar for raising rates in the future seems to be higher than cutting them. In his prepared remarks on Wednesday and also in lengthy responses to lawmakers on both days of testimony, Powell has the chance to provide updated insights. Apart from the recent inflation report, Powell’s comments on the latest upbeat jobs report may be of interest. He will also be grilled on trade policy but will likely dodge politically-sensitive comments.

On the other hand, if the level of 139 is broken then the door is open for the pair to reach the level of 138.
