RBNZ’s Orr: There are early signs of price pressures beginning to ease in the global economy

Additional comments

There would need to be a large inflationary shock to return to 75bp rate hikes.

RBNZ is optimistic about a return to steady, low inflation.

RBNZ has been aggressive in its tightening.

It’s worth noting that RBNZ’s Chief Economist Paul Conway also crossed wires, via Reuters, while stating that a cyclone that hit New Zealand earlier this month was leading to greater uncertainty around GDP projection. RBNZ's Conway was testifying at parliament's Finance and Expenditure committee meeting, per Reuters.
