The NZX 50 rose 38 points, or 0.3%, to close at 13,245 on Friday, erasing losses from the previous session and marking its highest level since May 7, as a rally on Wall Street overnight lifted sentiment, buoyed by the extended US-Iran ceasefire. Fresh data also supported sentiment, as consumer mood improved from a near three-year low in April, while business morale returned to positive territory in May. However, traders continued to assess comments from Anna Breman, Governor of the RBNZ, who said today that the Official Cash Rate is likely to rise sooner and more sharply than previously indicated. Most sectors traded in the green, including real estate, industrials, consumer discretionary, and utilities. Among the top gainers were Skellerup Holdings (3.9%), Mainfreight (3.4%), Briscoe Group (6.1%), Fletcher Building (1.3%), and Freightways Group (1.2%). For the month, the index rose 2.0% after being flat in the previous month. The market will be closed on Monday for a holiday.
