Here is their view, courtesy of eFXnews:
Currency investors should consider buying NZD/USD this week, advises CitiFX in its weekly FX pick to clients.

Selling momentum on NZD from the leveraged sector is beginning to wane. While the leveraged sector has not always set the tone for trade on NZD, potential for reversal of overextended shorts makes risk-return more attractive,†Citi says as a rationale behind this call.
In line with this view, Citi recommends buying NZD/USD from 0.6530, with a target at 0.67, and a stop at 0.6450
