Stephen Grootes speaks to George Glynos, Director and Head of Research at ETM Analytics, about Fitch’s upgrade of South Africa’s credit rating, its first in almost 21 years, driven by stronger fiscal discipline, improving revenue collection and lower‑than‑expected debt projections that point to stabilising government finances. In other interviews, PPC CEO Matias Cardarelli talks about the cement producer’s strong financial performance and the progress of its ambitious turnaround strategy. PPC reported a 75% jump in earnings per share, a significant increase in profitability and a sharp improvement in cash generation, driven largely by the performance of its South African cement business.

Back in March, Fitch Ratings placed New Zealand's AA+ long-term credit rating on a 'negative outlook', downgraded from 'stable'. Moody's later followed suit, claiming the global economic and political uncertainty presented downside risks to growth. Fitch's Head of Asia-Pacific Sovereigns, Thomas Rookmaaker, says this was driven by a number of factors, including the Middle East conflict and Government debt.

Oil prices are rising

Kia ora. Welcome to Tuesday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand. I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from Interest.co.nz. Today we lead with news oil prices are rising as 'peace talks' stall. And the German Chancellor has said the US is being 'humiliated' by Iran. In the US, the Dallas Fed factory survey shows activity continued to rise in April but that their new orders index plummeted sharply into contraction territory. Their shipments index fell into negative territory for the first time this year, while perceptions of broader business conditions continued to worsen notably in April. There were two large US Treasury bond auctions earlier today and while the yields achieved were little different to those at the prior equivalent events a month ago, there was a notable riser in demand. The 2 year bond brought +8.7% more bid value, and the five year +1.8% more. Together that was +US$18 bln more. Canada has launched a new sovereign wealth fund, seeding it with an initial C$25 bln funding. We should note that Moody's has upgraded China's A1 credit rating outlook to 'Stable' from 'Negative' from its last change in December 2023. Despite the Middle East headwinds, China's industrial profits were +15.5% in Q1-2026 than in the same period in 2025. This maintained the good expansion in January and February. SOE profits rose +10%, local private forms were up +25%, but foreign firms in China hardly managed any increase. A large part of the result has been the huge profits their metals industry is winning, especially for rare earth minerals. Taiwanese consumer sentiment edged up in April, but only marginally from its very low level. It is still basically at its lowest since January 2023. In Malaysia, a sharp rise in oil prices in March turned their overall producer price deflation into inflation. It is sure to get sharper in subsequent months. Meanwhile in Singapore industrial production rose sharply in March, up +10% from the same month a year ago after the very lackluster February result. In Germany, the GfK Consumer Climate Indicator dropped in May more than expected and to its weakest level since February 2023. Mounting pressure on households from rising energy prices has pushed inflation higher and sentiment lower. The UST 10yr yield is now just on 4.33%, up +2 bps from this time yesterday.  The price of gold will start today down -US$28 at US$4681/oz. (If you buy gold, it might just be supporting a criminal supply chain.) Silver is little-changed at just under US$75.50/oz. American oil prices are up +US$2.50 at just under US$97/bbl, while the international Brent price is up +US$3.50, and now at US$109/bbl. A week ago these prices were US$84.50/bbl and US$91/bbl respectively, so a big net rise. And we should note that the Russian benchmark (Urals) oil price has eased by -US$1.50 to US$106/bbl The Kiwi dollar is up +30 bps from yesterday at this time at 59.1 USc. Against the Aussie we are up +10 bps at 82.3 AUc. Against the euro we are up +20 bps at just on 50.4 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at just on 62.5 which is up +30 bps from yesterday. The bitcoin price starts today at US$76,753 and down -1.8% from this time yesterday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been modest at just under +/- 1.9%. You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz. Kia ora.
