新西兰基准标准普尔/NZX 50指数周四上涨0.3%,收于12649点,在贸易乐观情绪下连续第三个交易日上涨。美国总统唐纳德·特朗普周三表示,已达成一项协议,以恢复美中贸易战中脆弱的休战状态,这为世界上最大的两个经济体之间达成持久解决方案带来了希望。特朗普还表示愿意延长7月8日的最后期限,以便在美国征收更高关税之前与贸易伙伴完成谈判。美国5月CPI报告低于预期,进一步提振了人们对美联储今年晚些时候降息的押注,这增加了积极情绪。在国内新闻中,新西兰5月份的电子卡支出同比增长0.9%,超出了0.3%下降的预期。在大盘股中,奥克兰国际机场(1.7%)、Infratil(1.2%)、Mercury NZ(1.15%)和陶朗加港(2.1%)的涨幅显著。
New Zealand's benchmark S&P/NZX 50 index advanced 0.3% to close at 12,649 on Thursday, extending gains to a third straight session amid trade optimism. US President Donald Trump said on Wednesday that a deal had been reached to revive a fragile truce in the US-China trade war, raising hopes for a lasting resolution between the world’s two largest economies. Trump also signaled a willingness to extend the July 8 deadline for finalizing talks with trading partners before higher US tariffs are imposed. Adding to the positive sentiment, a cooler-than-expected US CPI report for May bolstered bets of Federal Reserve rate cuts later this year. In domestic news, New Zealand's electronic card spending rose by 0.9% year-on-year in May, defying expectations of a 0.3% drop. Among large-cap stocks, notable gains were seen in Auckland Intl Airport (1.7%), Infratil (1.2%), Mercury NZ (1.15%), and Port of Tauranga (2.1%).
