Our outlook
I think it's more likely that we see an increase of demand on the kiwi when looking at the pair from a fundamental and technical standpoint for both the long and short term. Going into next year, the kiwi seems much stronger especially since the pound has been underperforming compared to other currencies. The pound hit a December 2020 low and is continuing to depreciate.
