A tiny speck of a rise in inflation expectations in the latest RBNZ survey

  • 1.65% for 2 year expected, vs. 1.64% previously
  • For the 1-year out expected, to 1.26% (from 1.22%)

The latest NZ inflation data puts the current CPI at 0.4%

So, in 1 year survey participants reckon inflation will be higher by a factor of 3. And in 2 years by a factor of 4. Big calls.
