HSBC change RBNZ call; and also say "NZD has rallied too far and too fast"

One for the New Zealand dollar traders, a change in forecast from HSBC on the Reserve Bank of New Zealand

The note, in summary (bolding mine for emphasis):

• Despite continued robust economic growth, inflation disappointed in Q2 and wages growth remains subdued
• Given limited inflationary pressures and a dovish central bank, we now expect the RBNZ to lift its cash rate in Q3 2018 (previously Q1 2018)
• FI/FX strategy: The NZD has rallied too far and too fast, looking misaligned with rates, which we still expect to stay low
