Q3 GDPdata were released today, with a huge 1% contraction q/q, much worsethan expected, and a 1.5% contraction y/y, also much worse thanexpected. The Reserve Bank of New Zealand are not scheduled to meetagain until February 19. Expectations for a 50bp rate cut at that meeting haveheightened (and further cuts to follow in subsequent meetings). I’durge some perspective on this. Q3 data covered July, August andSeptember. The Reserve Bank of New Zealand rate cutting cyclecommenced in August, then continued in November and December. It’lltake time for these cuts to feed into the economy. There are someexpectations that Q3 will be the nadir and Q4 should show growth. Wewon’t see that data (Q4 GDP) until March (!) but we did get a weesign of ‘green shoots’ in later data released today. The ANZBusiness Survey for December showed activity at firms improved to afresh 10-year high during the month. NZD/USDadded to its FOMC/Powell slump, falling to lows under 0.5610 beforeshowing some sign of stabilising. AUD/USD was dragged down a littlealongside to ping 0.6200. TheBank of Japan kept its short-term policy rate unchanged at 0.25%,with an 8-1 vote. Board member Naoki Tamura, a policy hawk,dissented. He proposed raising rates to 0.5%, citing risinginflationary risks. Next up is Governor Ueda’s press conference,due at 0630 GMT / 0130 US Eastern time. I suspect Ueda might sound amore hawkish note than the Statement did. Today was a pause, not theend of the Bank’s normalisation cycle. Theyen weakened, adding to its losses from FOMC/Powell on Wednesday, UStime. USD/JPY traded up to highs circa 155.44. This article was written by Eamonn Sheridan at www.forexlive.com.
