周二,标准普尔/NZX 50指数上涨0.4%,至13606点左右,连续第八个交易日上涨,收于历史新高,这得益于大多数关键股票的强劲表现。公用事业领涨,包括Meridian Energy(+1.5%)、Contact Energy(+1%)和Mercury NZ(+1.2%)。其他表现突出的公司包括Fletcher Building(+1.8%)、Ventia Services(+2.2%)、Skellerup Holdings(+1.7%)和Vulcan Steel(+2.2%.)。商业服务业也表现强劲,增长3.6%。在数据方面,交易员们现在正在等待本周晚些时候的第三季度劳动力市场报告,失业率预计将达到近九年来的最高点,这可能会进一步加强储备银行放松货币政策的理由。在其他地方,主要贸易伙伴中国疲软的制造业数据增加了新西兰出口的风险,带来了一些下行压力。
The S&P/NZX 50 Index rose 0.4% to around 13,606 on Tuesday, advancing for the eighth consecutive session to close at an all-time high, driven by strength across most key stocks. Leading the gains were utilities, including Meridian Energy (+1.5%), Contact Energy (+1%), and Mercury NZ (+1.2%). Other notable performers included Fletcher Building (+1.8%), Ventia Services (+2.2%), Skellerup Holdings (+1.7%), and Vulcan Steel (+2.2%). The commercial services sector also performed strongly, rising 3.6%. On the data front, traders now await the Q3 labor market report later this week, with the unemployment rate expected to reach a nearly nine-year high, which could further strengthen the case for monetary easing from the Reserve Bank. Elsewhere, subdued manufacturing data from top trading partner China raised risks for Kiwi exports, exerting some downward pressure.
