Mark Smith: ASB Chief Economist on their expectation GDP will grow 0.3% in the June quarter despite the Middle East war

Dela

Our economy might be more resilient than we thought.  

Stats NZ is releasing June's GDP data later this morning, with most economists predicting growth will come in between 0.1% and 0.3% for the quarter. 

Farming, manufacturing, and exporting activity have been improving. 

ASB Senior Economist Mark Smith told Mike Hosking the economy might be "uneven", but there are green shoots.  

He says the economy started the year with a reasonable degree of momentum, which has carried through to quarter two.
