In fact, unadjusted PSI readings were sub-50 across all groupings whether it be by firm size, by region, or by industry. All industries below 50 in the same month has never occurred before outside of Covid lockdowns,\" said the New Zealand business organization.Retailers were especially underwater in July, said BusinessNZ.Retail \"trade continues to stand out on the downside. Not only was its unadjusted 31.8 in July the lowest among industries in the month, but it was that industry's worst July result since the PSI survey began (17 years ago)and by quite some margin,\" reported BusinessNZ.The category of accommodation, cafes, and restaurants also recorded its lowest ever July PSI, at 34.1, noted BusinessNZ.The recent PSI report \"provided further evidence the (New Zealand) economy is going backwards, that job losses will mount and that inflation is falling rapidly,\" said the Bank of New Zealand on Monday, in a report to clients.The Reserve Bank of New Zealand, the central bank, cut it key interest rate last week by 0.25% to 5.25%, the first reduction in four years, and plotted more rate cuts going forward, citing sluggish economic growth and ebbing inflation.","kind":null,"is_publish_news":false,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":true,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.26.4","shortVersion":"4.26.4","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/2460735640"}
