纽币/美元 (NZDUSD) 加自选

新西兰股市周五早盘持平于11726.2点左右，因材料和工业股的上涨抵消了公用事业和消费必需品的下跌，周四创下11月2日以来的最大单日涨幅。在今天公布一系列中国经济数据（包括工业产出和零售额）之前，人们保持了谨慎，并预计中国下周可能会确定基准贷款利率。交易员们也在等待新西兰储备银行的货币政策决定，市场预计央行将在下周连续第七次会议将其官方现金利率保持在5.5%。在数据方面，第一季度生产者通胀率降至0.7%。Skellerup Holdings上涨2.6%，Hallenstein Glasson Holdings上涨2.4%，Mercury NZ和Westpac Banking Corp分别下跌1.1%和0.8%。然而，由于经济数据喜忧参半，围绕美联储货币政策轨迹的不确定性，NXZ 50本周将下跌0.2%，这将是第二周下跌。

New Zealand shares were flat at around 11,726.2 in early trade on Friday, as a rise in materials and industrials offset falls in utilities and consumer staples after registering its biggest one-day gain since November 2nd Thursday. Caution built ahead of announcing a series of China's economic data, including industrial output and retail sales today, and anticipate China May fix benchmark lending rates next week. Traders also await the RBNZ monetary policy decisions, with the market expecting the central bank to hold its official cash rate at 5.5% for the 7th straight meeting next week. On the data front, producer inflation slows to 0.7% in Q1. Skellerup Holdings advanced 2.6%, Hallenstein Glasson Holdings rose 2.4%, while Mercury NZ and Westpac Banking Corp dropped by 1.1% and 0.8% each. However, the NXZ 50 is heading for a fall of 0.2% for the week, which would be the 2nd weekly decline, rattled by uncertainty surrounding the Fed monetary policy trajectory amid mixed economic data.
