"...
In New Zealand, underlying strength remains in the economy, supported by a strong labour market, sound household balance sheets,

continued fiscal support, and a strong terms of trade. The reduction in COVID-19 health-related restrictions is also enabling increased economic activity, including hospitality and tourism.

However, headwinds are strong. Heightened global economic uncertainty and higher inflation are dampening global and domestic consumer confidence. Asset prices, in particular house prices, have also declined, reflecting in part higher mortgage interest rates and increased supply of housing.

On balance, a broad range of indicators highlight that productive capacity constraints and ongoing inflation pressures remain prevalent. Employment remains above its maximum sustainable level, with labour shortages now the major constraint on production. The Reserve Bank’s core inflation measures are above 3 percent. ..."

is that actually good news , or a symptom of REAL prices rising faster than income ??

cheers
 
good luck on that inflation peaking ( at least in the West )

i am very wary we are still in ( or in again ) ' BAD news is good news ' ( expecting more Fed stimulus and QE )

since the S&P is up early it will be worth watching the close ( because it is less likely the PPT is alert ) and see what genuine buyer support is like
