The question is will the RSBNZ give the economy a huge jolt to liven up the economy today 26 Nov 2025

The view is a 50 basis point cut is possible today if the RBNZ is serious about jolting the economy into action and setting up BOOM AHOY 2026.

A 25 basis points cut, the view is the market will just give it a yawn and the causal effect will have the economy sliding sideways therefore causing another cut in Feb 2026 some three months away.

The idea is get the job done today, thus resetting the economy. for 2026 and beyond.

The view is its not a great idea to leave the economy drowning for another three months.

Therefore the view is cut 50 basis points today or suffer more downside to the economy.

Get serious get the job done today.
