We bring you the RIPPL Roundup each month to provide an early market snapshot for New Zealand and Australian financial advisers.
Our Key Observations:
- Fall in 10Y government bond yields, except Japan which remained at the upper limit of the yield curve control band.
- Flattening out of term deposits in Australia, and less so in New Zealand.
- Increase in central bank cash rates for USD, AUD, EUR, GBP and CAD since the last RIPPL Roundup.
- Higher inflation in Australia, Japan, and China. Lower in the US, NZ (though core inflation was higher), Euro area, and the UK.
- January bounce for all asset classes, except commodities.
