“We suspect the market will quickly look through any strength in the Q2 GDP figures, but likely latch onto weakness. However, the market will likely need to see at least some evidence of weakening in the upcoming more timely data flow (or see the RBNZ turn even more dovish at its upcoming OCR Review) or risk receivers getting a little impatient. But we doubt short-end yields would need to drift too much higher before fresh receivers emerged.”
