Wasn’t bad that after promoting ‘transparency’ the RBNZ banned media and even reporting from a speech to business people recently ...aparently this is what transparency means - “...communicate directly with a group of people who will be better informed after the event than they were at the start. That fits very well with our strategy to communicate more widely.”

Also it seem strange that even though the RBNZ say 4.6% is the best guess of the unemployment rate consistent with keeping inflation low and yet the Reserve Bank has allowed it to fall to 4.4% without considering the need for at least a token OCR hike ...but then saying the next change could be up or down maybe he has considered a hike but is signalling a cut if anything is like. We’ll all suffer in late 2019/2020
Fruity as hell...

I had high hopes for Orr but he seems to be overreaching his role at every opportunity. We've gone from one extreme to the other...
