周五,标准普尔/NZX 50指数下跌0.3%,收于12845点,投资者对新征收的关税对国内经济的影响表示担忧。周四,新西兰对美国出口商品征收15%的关税,这给该国出口导向型经济带来了风险。在周六公布的中国消费者和生产者价格数据公布之前,交易员们也感到紧张,预测显示CPI将再次下降,突显出新西兰最大贸易伙伴的国内需求持续疲软。尽管周五有所下跌,但新西兰元50指数本周上涨0.9%,结束了连续两周的下跌,这得益于人们对新西兰储备银行可能在本月晚些时候降息的预期上升,此前就业报告疲软。在企业方面,权重股Meridian Energy(-1.2%)、Infratil(-1.5%)和a2 Milk(-0.8%)领跌。其他值得注意的下跌股包括萨默塞特集团(-2.2%)、大洋洲(-2.9%)、根特拉克集团(-1.8%)和弗莱彻大厦(-1%)。
The S&P/NZX 50 index slipped 0.3% to close at 12,845 on Friday, as investors expressed concern over the impact of newly imposed tariffs on the domestic economy. A 15% tariff on New Zealand exports to the US took effect on Thursday, raising risks for the country’s export-driven economy. Traders were also on edge ahead of China’s consumer and producer price data due Saturday, with forecasts pointing to a renewed drop in the CPI, underscoring persistently weak domestic demand in New Zealand’s largest trading partner. Despite Friday’s decline, the NZX 50 rose 0.9% for the week, ending a two-week losing streak, underpinned by rising expectations that the Reserve Bank of New Zealand may cut rates later this month, following a weak jobs report. On the corporate front, heavyweights Meridian Energy (-1.2%), Infratil (-1.5%), and a2 Milk (-0.8%) led the downturn. Other notable decliners included Summerset Group (-2.2%), Oceania (-2.9%), Gentrack Group (-1.8%), and Fletcher Building (-1%).
