New Zealand/United States - Exchange Rate Graphs

The exchange rate has steadily increased since the year 2000 and it had its highest peak in history in 2007 when it reached 0.81. We need the exchange rate to return to where it was when we started our deputation, around 0.60. The difference between 0.60 and 0.80 is about $1,000 per month on our budget.
