π RBNZ OCR Decision 2pm Wednesday: What Can We Expect?π
Markets have spoken! The 2yr swap rate (bank wholesale funding rate) has dropped to Sep 2022 levels (4.19%), down 1.6% from the peak on 4 Oct 2023 (5.79%).
The latest inflation and unemployment statistics have left the door wide open for OCR cut/s. The only unknown variable is the RBNZ itself, the organization tasked with "protecting and promoting the stability of New Zealandβs financial system."
