The NZX 50 fell 23 points, or 0.2%, to 13,186 in early trading on Tuesday, marking its second consecutive session of losses and hitting its lowest level since September 4. Traders remained cautious ahead of the release of Q2 GDP data later this week. A Reuters poll indicated that New Zealand's economy is expected to contract by 0.3% qoq, aligning with the RBNZ’s estimates, after recording growth in the previous two quarters. Investor sentiment was also weighed down by caution ahead of the Fed's interest rate decision on Wednesday. However, losses were capped by an upbeat session on Wall Street overnight, buoyed by signs of progress in US-China trade talks and optimism surrounding the Fed’s upcoming monetary policy decision. Utilities, consumer discretionary, and real estate sectors were the main drags on the index, with notable losses from Hallenstein Glasson (-2.0%), Vector Ltd (-1.9%), Briscoe Group (-0.9%), and Westpac Banking Corp. (-0.5%).

Annual food inflation in New Zealand held steady at 5% in August 2025, matching July’s pace and marking the highest rate since November 2023. Grocery food prices contributed most to the increase, rising 4.7% annually, driven by higher costs for milk, cheese, and butter. Dairy products remained the main driver of rising food costs, alongside meat, poultry, and fish, which jumped 8.1% due to higher prices for beef steak, beef mince, and lamb leg. Fruit and vegetable prices climbed 8.9%, and non-alcoholic beverages increased 3.9%, while restaurant meals and ready-to-eat food were up 2.4%.
