Dollar Index reached its maximum value by more than 2 weeks at the level of 76.559. We all sat down in their heads now, one question: what brings the current dollar rally - a new opportunity for him to sell or the beginning of something more sinister. As an index of the dollar should pay special attention to the level of 76.62, which will play a decisive role.

RBNZ left the old policy, saying he was not going to raise interest rates until the second half of 2010. Also, the Central Bank again expressed his concern that the high New Zealand dollar negative impact on exports.
