The NZX 50 fell 48 points, or 0.3%, to 13,347 in early trading on Tuesday, halting gains from the previous three sessions, as weakness in healthcare, materials, and communication services stocks weighed on the index. Traders assessed a new 28% capital gains tax (CGT) announced this morning and awaited the Federal Reserve’s policy meeting later this week. Labour has agreed to campaign for the tax, which would apply only to property, take effect in July 2027, and not be retrospective if the party is elected at next year’s election. In response, Finance Minister Nicola Willis, who is also National’s deputy leader, told Morning Report that the policy would put the economy at risk. An upbeat session on Wall Street overnight, however, capped losses amid optimism over President Trump’s upcoming meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping on Thursday. Among early decliners were Gentrack Group (-2.0%), Fisher & Paykel Healthcare (-1.9%), Port of Tauranga (-1.0%), and Freightways Group (-0.7%).
