Nic Guesnon, an economist at UBS, stated that the Reserve Bank of New Zealand showed a clear shift towards a dovish stance in its policy statement in July. However, market participants and economic experts still question whether the institution considered a rate cut at that meeting. Guesnon added that currently, there is a 70% expectation in the market for a 25 basis point cut in August. But based on preliminary survey results from economists, the majority view is that the official cash rate will remain unchanged. This suggests that while discussions about a rate cut seem very close to becoming reality, the current market appears more inclined towards stability.
