The S&P/NZX 50 index fell 0.99% to 11,717 on Thursday, snapping a two-day streak of gains, weighed by losses in shares of large-cap stocks and aged-care providers, amidst cautious sentiment ahead of US economic data. Investors now look ahead to US jobless claims, durable goods orders, and pending home sales data on Thursday, along with Friday’s PCE inflation report. At home, New Zealand business confidence fell in June, with every sector except agriculture reporting weaker activity compared to a year ago, an ANZ Bank survey showed. Among the heavyweights, sharp losses were seen from Meridian (-3.2%), Auckland Airport (-2.6%), Mercury NZ (-2.2%), Mainfreight (-1.5%), and A2 Milk (-1.5%). Aged care providers Ryman, Summerset and Arvida were down 4%, 2.3%, and 5.1%, respectively. The index shed 1.26% during the month, contributing to a second-quarter decline of 3.20%. The stock market will be closed on Friday for a holiday.
