RBNZ chair Breman said policy rates are gradually adjusting toward a neutral level.

Ginlong Technologies said on a July 7 conference call that orders for Q3 2026 are full. Total inverter shipments (residential storage, C&I storage and grid‑tied) are expected to rise about 30% QoQ, with storage inverters growing faster than grid‑tied units. Residential storage system pairing rate is roughly 20–30% now; the company targets above 50% in 2027 and expects system sales to materially outpace inverter sales. For C&I storage, monthly inverter order intake has exceeded 4,000 units and is climbing month‑on‑month; system repeat order rates are very high.

Morningstar analyst Jing Jie Yu said Samsung Electronics' operating profit guidance was in line with consensus, but revenue guidance of KRW171 trillion was slightly below the market average. The shortfall likely reflects smaller-than-expected DRAM price gains and could unsettle investors positioned for structurally stronger memory pricing. Samsung shares closed down 6.9%, trimming year-to-date gains to just under 150%.
