Analysts' previews are brief and to the point.
Westpac:

    Inflation expectations jumped higher in the RBNZ's March quarter survey of expectations. That jump was a key factor that underpinned the 50bp OCR hike in April.
    The June survey (comes) hot on the heels of the March quarter inflation report, which showed inflation has risen to a 31-year high.

A result in that vein would support our forecast for another 50bp OCR hike in May
