Finance Minister Nicola Willis says New Zealand has not “escaped the aftershocks of world events” as new data shows hardship rising and more Kiwis struggling to pay the bills. Speaking to Newstalk ZB Wellington Mornings host Nick Mills about the state of the economy, Willis acknowledged it had been “a tough time”. “Things were starting to come along and then come April there were some reasonably significant announcements by the US President that sent ramifications through the world”, Willis said. Donald Trump's April “Liberation Day” announcement saw sweeping tariffs introduced for more than 125 countries, including 10% on imports coming from New Zealand. Willis said business confidence has been impacted as a result and growth forecasts have been downgraded.“Little old New Zealand, just recovering, has been really impacted by that.” She said in spite of the global uncertainty growth is still forecast to improve, but “we haven't escaped the aftershocks of global events”. Credit reporting agency Centrix released its June Credit Indicator today. It showed household arrears were levelling out while hardship and company liquidations were on the rise. Nearly 50,000 individual billpayers were in financial hardship, an increase of 300 from May, and 14% more than a year ago, Centrix said. An uptick in hardship began in November 2022, and today's figures “continues a steady upward trend”, Centrix managing director Keith McLaughlin said. “I don't deny those numbers, as you say, they're facts and I meet enough New Zealanders each week to know there are still a lot of people doing it tough”, Willis said. She said it comes at a time when New Zealand is at its “peak unemployment”. “When unemployment is higher, of course that is when you see people unable to pay their bills”, Willis said. On the increase in business liquidations, which Centrix recorded as being up 27% on last year's figures, Willis said that there would be a variety of reasons for that and disputed the Government was responsible. Asked by Mills if her government could have done more to assist struggling businesses, she said there were “certainly things we could have done which would have made it harder for them”. Willis pointed to moves like tax cuts, cutting red tape, and the investment boost policy, which she said are benefiting small businesses. Wellington's ‘disappointing chapter' Willis, a lifelong Wellingtonian, was asked about the state of the capital. She responded by criticising Wellington City Council for having had “its eye completely off the ball”. “It feels to me like a place that needs a fresh start”, she said. Willis believes the city still has “cool things” going for it like smart tenacious people, the native bush, and the city's hospitality scene, but said “man oh man have we mucked up” with regard to council decision-making. She said the council must be focused on keeping rates low. It comes after the council approved a 12% rates increase for the 2025/2026 year. “It seems to me that the council has not been focused on that mission and at the same time has been quite distracted by what I would say are interesting political debates.” She said the city has been in a “disappointing chapter”. Asked whether she is excited by any of those running in the upcoming local election, Willis said she does not endorse candidates but is looking for two things. The first was getting rates rises under control. “That means actually being prepared to stop doing some things, we've had to do that as a government”, Willis said.The second thing she was looking for in candidates was policy that is “genuinely pro-business”, citing Wellington's disproportionately high commercial rates. She also spoke on the Golden Mile project saying while she understands the vision, now is not the time.“I'm looking for councillors who are pledging to be disciplined about the way they spend ratepayer money”, Willis said.

Big moves in yields, especially at the front. While twos are making a move on their own, it's the very front at the first-in-line bills that draws our attention. Steepening has been given a boost by some ugly recent data from right where it counts - incomes and spending.Eurodollar University's conversations w/Steve Van Metre*****If you are in any way interested in precious metals,  you need to see what today's video sponsor, Monetary Metals, is doing with them at the link below: http://www.monetary-metals.com/Snider/************To sign up for our webinar on July 10, follow the link below:https://event.webinarjam.com/channel/swaps******https://www.eurodollar.universityTwitter: https://twitter.com/JeffSnider_EDU

Rob Haworth, senior investment strategist at U.S. Bank Asset Management, says that the volatility and headline risks of the first half of 2025 haven't changed the outlook for the market and economy, which can grind through the rest of the year and into 2026 with modest gains. Haworth acknowledges "a lot of questions still to be answered," but he says that most of the answers will be within degrees of expectations, and a lack of surprises should allow the market to grind higher. That said, Haworth said investors will want to be properly diversified to protect themselves against the volatility and the news risks. David Trainer of New Constructs puts Carvana back in The Danger Zone, noting that the stock — which he first singled out in April of 2019 — has roared back from a low of $4 per share in December 22 to gain more than 50 percent year-to-date and nearly 150 percent in the last year, rising to a stock valuation "that implies that Carvana will sell as many vehicles as General Motors." Plus Greg McBride, chief financial analyst at BankRate.com, on their latest survey research, which showed that 60 percent of Americans are uncomfortable with their current level of emergency savings, and half of Americans don't have enough emergency savings to cover three months' expenses.

Summary: In this episode of #70secondCEO, Carl Gould breaks down a simple but powerful time management formula to help leaders get others to perform at a high level. Using the 20-20-60 Rule, Carl shows how to divide your time: 20% coaching, mentoring, and empowering your team 20% strategic thinking and planning 60% doing your core responsibilities You'll learn how to become the center of a coaching ecosystem—managing up, coaching across, and empowering down. This framework helps leaders scale results and build stronger teams. Read full transcript: Hi Everyone, Carl Gould here your #70secondCEO, just over a minute of  investment per day for a lifetime of results. You need to get others to perform at a high level. That means you have to empower them, that means you have to coach them, guide them, and mentor them. So let me give you a couple of statistics here to play around with a couple of formulas how you spend your time. Alright, you are gonna take on in Stage 3 here, is “How well do you get others to perform at a high level?” So I'm gonna give you a little time management formula called 20-20-60: 20% of your time, 20% of your time, 60 % of your time. So in Stage 3, 20% of your time should be spent coaching, guiding, enabling, mentoring others to make them better. You ever hear the expression “you have to manage up and coach up?” That's right. You coach, you're a manager on how to interact with you better. You coach your stakeholders, your colleagues, the people that you deal with on a regular basis that are one degree of separation from you. And if there's anyone that does report to you, you coach and empower down as well. So you become the center of a coaching and empowerment network or ecosystem. And that's how you're gonna make them better. 20% of your time on coaching, mentoring, guiding, and enabling. 20% of your time on strategic thinking: How do I make things better? How do I plan? How do I set goals? And how do I achieve those goals? And then 60% of your time on your job description.  Like and follow this podcast so you can learn more, my name is Carl Gould and this has been your #70secondCEO.  

In a world of pressing problems one of the bigger, longer term ones is due a good looking at because if we don't, when we get there we will want to shoot ourselves. IRD has been looking at the cost of stuff and where that money comes from. The trouble, and this is not new, is we have more older people needing more money and fewer younger people to work to raise the money to pay the bills. This is more than Super. It's health. It's pretty much everything. Currently 16% of the population is over 65-years-old. By 2060 it will be a quarter. The IRD conclusion is that people will likely have to pay more tax. Really? Is that it? Well, no. Somewhere in the advice they mutter something like "we could always cut costs". Bingo! Give those people a prize. And why that idea is not top of the pile of ideas, I don't know. Because here is what I do know. Most of the money to pay for all this comes from you and me. Personal tax is over 50% of Government income, its 52%. Companies pay 17%. GST is 25%. A lot of GST is us as well. In fact our top tax rate is 39cents. Add GST on to that you are at 54%. Add the bits and pieces on top - the ACC, the road user charges - and top income earners will be parting with 56-57% of everything they earn. And the IRD advice is we will need more please. So how much more? And at what point does it become ruinous? At what point do the young, bright things move offshore? The ones of course that haven't already. So let's take stock. We are highly taxed. Remember at the other end we have no tax free component in income. We are a low wage economy. We have a massive savings issue with KiwiSaver at an average of $30,000-ish and a fiscal cliff in a bunch of years where the main idea is we will bleed you some more. Spot the red flag. So, what to do? And how urgently do we do it? Ideas please. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's exactly halfway through 2025 - six months ago the catch phrase of the Wellington business community was 'survive til 25'. Are our businesses still struggling halfway through the year? Also, have tourism numbers in Wellington bounced back to pre-Covid levels, and can Kiwi consumers and businesses cope with the increasing costs of flights? To answer those questions, Business Central/Wellington Chamber of Commerce CEO Simon Arcus and Travel Agents Association CEO Julie White joined Nick Mills for the Business Panel.

AI shouldn't provoke fear and anxiety, it should raise expectations for regular 4-day workweek with 3-day weekends. Artificial Intelligence represents a potential major leap in labor productivity. The end result isn't a desolate hellscape which leaves everyone unemployed, it's instead something economics (small "e") is very familiar with. webinar link https://event.webinarjam.com/channel/swapsEurodollar University's Make it Make Cents*******To sign up for our webinar on July 10, follow the link below:https://event.webinarjam.com/register/29/4yzg6cx2******https://www.eurodollar.universityTwitter: https://twitter.com/JeffSnider_EDU

If Canada wants to be net zero by 2050, more than a million small businesses will have to make the green transition. And while some intrepid business owners are already trying their best to navigate a more eco-friendly path, others say it's a big ask, especially when many are already struggling to balance the needs of price-wary shoppers with a thin bottom line. We'll dive into their journey, and learn more about the supports that could change the game.

As the world descends into madness, we come to learn of a new term called “Killware” which is described as cyber attacks designed to cause harm to communities. Hospitals, banks, police stations, water treatment facilities, and other infrastructure providers are targeted by groups, almost always with ties to the intelligence community. The march towards a digital ID for all human beings is being pushed globally by some powerful people behind the scenes. They plan to connect it to a person's internet history and social media accounts, and author, Whitney Webb, explains what the plan is and how they intend to implement it. The importance of the Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) in their plans cannot be overstated, as it will allow them complete control of the money supply and for the removal of privacy. Whitney reminds us that the banks are making their own crypto as well while demonizing everyone else's.

So, why did Holland really leave the empire? Was it because the valiant and tragic countess Jacqueline was “hunted down from one land to the other, all of them mine”. Was it a story of misogyny, betrayal, incompetence and ruthless power politics. Yes, it was. But it was a also a story of economic and climate change and one that links into the herring trade of the Hanseatic League, the decline of Teutonic Knights and even into the Hussite Revolt, topics that seem distant, but mattered. This week we focus on this, the latter part of the storyThe music for the show is Flute Sonata in E-flat major, H.545 by Carl Phillip Emmanuel Bach (or some claim it as BWV 1031 Johann Sebastian Bach) performed and arranged by Michel Rondeau under Common Creative Licence 3.0.As always:Homepage with maps, photos, transcripts and blog: www.historyofthegermans.comIf you wish to support the show go to: Support • History of the Germans PodcastFacebook: @HOTGPod Threads: @history_of_the_germans_podcastBluesky: @hotgpod.bsky.socialInstagram: history_of_the_germansTwitter: @germanshistoryTo make it easier for you to share the podcast, I have created separate playlists for some of the seasons that are set up as individual podcasts. they have the exact same episodes as in the History of the Germans, but they may be a helpful device for those who want to concentrate on only one season.

Is the Fed setting the stage for another policy blunder? As inflation pressures linger and economic growth slows, Lance Roberts & Michael Lebowitz break down the risks of the central bank's next move—and what it could mean for your money on this morning's episode of #TheRealInvestmentShow. The Market Rally is ON, yet oil prices are telling a different story about the economy. President Trump could be picking a successor to Fed Chairman Jerome Powell sooner than later. Lance and Michael expose the Fed's political "independance," and it's proclivity for financial socialism. The Fed is always late...and always wrong. The true role of the Fed is to protect its member banks. Jerome Powell doesn't mind being late. The ill-fated push to lower bank's minimum reserve requirements. Again.

The [CB]/[DS] was running a shadow economic system which distorted the actual economy. Jerome Powell says the quiet part out loud. Tariffs must go. They know Trump is setting up a parallel economy. The judiciary is now losing respect. The Federal Judges are now going against the SC and Roberts will eventually need to step in. Never interfere with an enemy while they are in the process of destroying themselves. The [DS] is trying to keep the war going, Trump shuts it down. He gave the peace deal a 12 hour period, I do believe this was done to see what moves the [DS] was going to pull. Trump shuts down Iran and Israel, peace is now going to spread through out the world. Trump showed the world who is in control. Trump is now telling the people who to primary, the hunt is on .   Economy (function(w,d,s,i){w.ldAdInit=w.ldAdInit||[];w.ldAdInit.push({slot:18510697282300316,size:[0, 0],id:"ld-8599-9832"});if(!d.getElementById(i)){var j=d.createElement(s),p=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];j.async=true;j.src="https://cdn2.decide.dev/_js/ajs.js";j.id=i;p.parentNode.insertBefore(j,p);}})(window,document,"script","ld-ajs"); Trump's statement implies some form of sanctions relief or a decision not to enforce secondary sanctions on Chinese entities buying Iranian oil. This is a departure from his administration's earlier “maximum pressure” campaign, which since February 2025 aimed to reduce Iran's oil exports to zero by targeting Chinese refineries and Iran's shadow fleet of tankers.  The U.S. had recently imposed sanctions on Chinese “teapot” refineries and port operators for processing Iranian oil, disrupting some trade. Trump's comment could signal a pause or reversal of these measures, allowing China to continue importing Iranian crude without immediate penalties. Trump's hope that China will “purchase plenty from the U.S.” suggests this could be part of a broader trade strategy. By allowing China to buy Iranian oil, Trump might be aiming to negotiate increased Chinese purchases of U.S. oil or other goods, offsetting the impact of his tariff policies. This could also be a diplomatic gesture to reduce tensions with China amid ongoing trade disputes or to encourage China to pressure Iran into nuclear deal negotiations, as some analysts suggest. https://twitter.com/SecScottBessent/status/1937218178574123382   up by Washington's negligence has led to human suffering on a massive scale and a severe market distortion. President Trump is the first leader in a generation to take this problem seriously. This is why the administration is so committed to passing the One Big Beautiful Bill. This legislation is just as much an immigration bill as it is a tax bill. It will finish the President's border wall and provide federal law enforcement with resources to hire thousands of new personnel to combat illegal immigration, drug cartels, and human trafficking. The goal is to end exploitation in black markets and secure the border for years to come. The American people called for immigration sanity by voting for President Trump. It's time for Congress to answer the call.
