The Federal Reserve (Fed) emphasized a tightening policy to bring inflation back down to its 2% target, but prices are still well above this mark. New York Fed President John Williams warned last week about the possibility of early rate cuts, adding that the central bank is on track to lower borrowing costs later this year.<\/p>\n<p>The RBNZ is expected to keep the Official Cash Rate steady at 5.5% on Wednesday, but the possibility of a hike remains as inflation proves difficult to curb. The market is pricing in a 25% odd rate hike since the RBNZ has held the rate since May last year. In recent weeks, the RBNZ policymakers delivered hawkish remarks, which lifted the New Zealand (NZD) against the US Dollar (USD). Chief economist Paul Conway said last month that the central bank still has a way to go to bring inflation back to its 2% target, while Orr stated that it has more work to do to anchor inflation expectations.<\/p>\n<p>Traders will keep an eye on the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fxstreet.com\/macroeconomics\/central-banks\/rbnz\" data-fxs-autoanchor=\"\">RBNZ<\/a> monetary policy meeting on Wednesday.
