Jobs, interest rates, and real strategies for surviving New Zealand's ‘grumpy’ economy WEBINAR REPLAY
1Description
If you feel like you’re doing it tough, you’re far from alone. The New Zealand economy has been struggling, and regular New Zealanders are feeling the pinch.
Business confidence is down, unemployment is up, and core cost-of-living measures such as food and power prices don’t look good.
Interest rates are now falling, but house prices are staying flat.
So is there hope for an economic comeback, or is there the possibility of a deeper crash?
Time to bring in the experts, with:
- Simplicity chief economist Shamubeel Eaqub
- Interest.co.nz economics and politics reporter Dan Brunskill
- ANZ senior economist Miles Workman.
They’re ready to break down what’s actually going on, and what you need to know to protect your money, and ride out the storm.
We’ll debate:
- The Reserve Bank’s "shock therapy" OCR cut, and whether more is coming
- Whether NZ’s housing market is bouncing back or still heading down.
- The truth about job security and the real state of the labour market.
- The smartest money moves right now, for mortgages, savings, and KiwiSaver.
