Societe Generale analysts highlight a strong rebound in global risk appetite, benefiting the South African Rand. USD/ZAR is seen as vulnerable after failing to hold above its 200-day moving average at 17.00, with scope to grind toward 16.00.

"ZAR is a clear beneficiary, supported by the risk rebound and a renewed lift in gold."
"USD/ZAR looks vulnerable, with scope to grind toward 16.00 following the failure to sustain above the 200dma (17.00)."
