Description: An elephant that represents 'Inflation' marches towards a little kiwi which shouts 'Stop!'. Context - Last month, the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) cut the official cash rate (OCR) by 50 basis points to 2.50 percent, matching its record low, to reduce the impact of the Feb. 22 earthquake which crippled the country's second-biggest city. The RBNZ governor Alan Bollard said the outlook for the domestic economy remained very uncertain, with higher oil prices and elevated local currency dampening economic activity. Underlying inflation pressures appear contained, as the first-quarter jump in the annual inflation rate to a 2-1/2-year high was largely driven by a rise in fuel prices and sales tax, giving the central bank plenty of leeway on policy.
