The NZX 50 fell 51 points, or 0.4%, to close at 13,202 on Thursday, halting gains from the previous two sessions and marking its lowest level in over two weeks, after retreating from its highest level since May 7, reached a day earlier. The broader index tracked a downbeat session on Wall Street Wednesday as escalating tensions in the Middle East drove oil prices higher. Concerns over the US May inflation figure also pressured sentiment, as inflation accelerated to its highest level in three years in May, reinforcing expectations that the Fed will hold interest rates steady for longer. Investors remained wary ahead of the release of New Zealand’s business PMI for May, due on Friday, after the index recorded its slowest growth in seven months in April. Financials, materials, and industrials stocks mainly weighed on the index, with notable losers including Infratil (-1.9%), Mainfreight (-1.8%), Ebos Group (-1.2%), Fletcher Building (-1.0%), and Westpac Banking Corp. (-0.9%).
