The better than expected conditions of the oil production in Norway is helping bearish investors to rally in sessions. The downward momentum is projected to last until the first half of June and potentially drag the USD/NOK lower and lower. The Norwegian krone is strengthening thanks to the optimism in the country’s oil output and considering that the crude market is already steadying, the oil-linked currency will most likely continue its direction. Bears investors of the US dollar to Norwegian krone exchange rate are effectively pushing the 50-day moving average lower and closer the 200-day moving average. Aside from its relationship with oil prices, another factor that is supporting the krone in forex sessions is the unexpected increase in the country’s retail sales. Recently, Statistics Norway noted that the direction of spending is less on services but more on retail goods, a change in the country’s consumption pattern.
