We’re after the rate hike and President Adam Glapinsky’s conference and it’s pretty clear now that we’re in a rate hike cycle, which the market already knows, and the president clearly admitted that during the last press conference.

The Monetary Policy Board, during its meeting on Tuesday, decided to raise the interest rates on NBP by 50 basis points.

– From the perspective of the PLN, this is clearly positive news, which, as we can see, significantly devalues ​​our currency this week. The uptrend line in the EUR / PLN has been broken, which opens the way for further strengthening of our currency – he added.

Zloty Quotes – Predictions

Midge also noted that the communication between the Monetary Policy Board and the market has changed to become more transparent, and that the hawkish stance shown in its message will support the zloty in the medium term. – In my opinion, the MPC’s connection to the market has also changed and its hawkish stance is clearly visible, which of course will be a factor supporting the further appreciation of the zloty. In the short term, due to the significant strengthening of the zloty in recent days, the risk of some rebound (weakening of the zloty) increases, but in the medium term I assume that the zloty has a chance of further strengthening – the analyst predicts.

Krzysztof Paulak of currencyomat.pl drew attention to the preliminary inflation data in Friday’s comment. “The local currency is supported by today’s reading of CPI inflation in December is a result of 8.6%, while the reading in November of 7.8% makes the zloty stronger. This result means that the MPC will continue to raise interest rates and this is a clear argument. To buy PLN “- said Pawlak.

Preliminary data of the Central Bureau of Statistics show that the prices of consumer goods and services in December 2021 increased by 8.6%. every year.
