The Reserve Bank’s benchmark rate will drop by at least 100 basis points – and up to 150bp – according to bank economists spoken to NBR.
Quote
This morning's result, along with the outlook, left the Reserve Bank with " plenty of scope to cut the OCR by 100bp (one percentage point) on January 29."
UBZ NZ economist Robin Clements said he doubted today's inflation number would make much difference for the Reserve Bank.
"Inflation was expected to tumble as petrol prices reversed and this process is now underway. While the exchange rate decline will impact on some prices in early 2009, soft demand conditions will reduce firms'
pricing power. "
After last week's shocking business confidence survey, Clements and UBS shifted to anticipating a 100bp cut (previously 50bp) at next week's Reserve Bank OCR review. The OCR currently stands at 5 per cent.
He is now also forecasting two cuts of 50 basis points each, in March and April, leaving the OCR at 3 per cent.
