We expect New Zealand's GDP fell by 1.1 percent in Q4 2008, completing four consecutive declines in economic activity, predict the analysts at Westpac. Q4 is not only on track to be the worst quarter for growth of last year but the worst since 1991. Combined with the mild declines in the first three quarters of 2008, economic activity in Q4 2008 is expected to be down 2.0 percent from the same quarter a year earlier.view original article
