新西兰基准标准普尔/NZX 50指数周三下跌0.05%，收于13228点，因投资者将注意力转向周四公布的该国GDP数据而减少了早些时候的跌幅。预计6月季度经济将萎缩0.3%，支持明年初再降息两次的预期。在全球范围内，市场关注的焦点是美联储今天晚些时候的政策决定，人们普遍预计美联储将降息25个基点。在企业方面，奥克兰国际机场（-1.5%）、a2 Milk（-3.2%）、陶朗加港（-1.6%）、Spark NZ（-0.8%）和Heartland Group（-1.5%。
New Zealand's benchmark S&P/NZX 50 index fell 0.05% to close at 13,228 on Wednesday, trimming earlier losses as investors turned their attention to the country’s GDP data due on Thursday. The economy is anticipated to shrank by 0.3% in the June quarter, supporting expectations for two more rate cuts by early next year. Globally, market focus is on the US Federal Reserve's policy decision later today, where it is widely expected to deliver a 25bps rate cut. On the corporate front, losses in Auckland Intl Airport (-1.5%), a2 Milk (-3.2%), Port of Tauranga (-1.6%), Spark NZ (-0.8%), and Heartland Group (-1.5%) weighed on the benchmark. However, declines were partly offset by solid gains in utility and property stocks, sectors that tend to benefit from lower interest rates.
