We had a few round trips last week with all the inflation and employment data but eventually expectations settled pretty much at the same levels.

Today, we got a slightly more dovish repricing for the RBNZ after the lower than expected NZ CPI data but in the bigger picture it didn't change much.

We are now in a period where we need stronger reasons to materially change expectations.
