Societe Generale’s Kenneth Broux and colleagues note that the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) held rates at 2.25% but turned more hawkish, while Australia’s softer Consumer Price Index (CPI) and underwhelming jobs data have markets trimming Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) hike expectations.

Market context: This update is relevant to NZD traders, with NZDUSD as the primary instrument to monitor for follow-through, trend continuation, or headline volatility.
