It says in the 2024/25 period, an estimated 1,5 million incidences of housebreaking occurred, affecting 1,1 million households in South Africa. Theft of personal property is the most common crime experienced by individuals aged 16 years and older in South Africa.

Vintage City Church // Becoming the households of God PT.3 // Greg SandersContinuing our study of Titus 2, we look at how women are to model Kingdom femininity, a role which can only be lived out through a life rooted in Jesus.

Kia ora,Welcome to Monday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand.I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from Interest.co.nz.And today we lead with news geopolitics will suck up all the headlines this week, but we will focus on how the world's economies are faring.This coming week will have a focus on Australia, and the RBA's Tuesday cash rate target review. "Everyone" expects them to cut by -25 bps to 3.60% - the more so because they skipped the expected cut at their July 9 review. There will be interest in the NAB business sentiment report this week tooIn the US, the economic focus will be on CPI, PPI, retail sales and industrial production data. Market analysts aren't expecting to see much expansion and are expecting to see higher inflation. There will also be another consumer sentiment survey released this week too.In Europe it will be all about GDP and sentiment updates. In Japan, we get to learn their Q2 GDP result. In India the focus will be on inflation updates.In China there will be some big data released including for industrial production, retail sales, and new bank lending.Over the weekend China released its July CPI data. It rose +0.4% from June, to be unchanged from a year ago. They are being suppressed by Beijing's subsidy programs. Food prices fell marginally in the month to be -1.0% lower than a year ago. Beef prices however rose +3.6% on that annual basis, sheepmeat prices fell -1.4%, and milk was down -1.3%.Meanwhile overall producer prices deflated quicker, down -3.6% from a year ago. Producer purchase prices were down -4.5%, taking it to almost three years of continuous monthly declines. That's serious deflation.More globally, the July world food price index inched higher, but that masks record higher prices for meat proteins. And those were driven by beef and sheep prices. Dairy prices eased back from June but only slightly and they remain very near record levels.Canada released its July labour market report over the weekend showing 1.6 mln people unemployed for a jobless rate of 6.9%. That's high even if it is stable, and the number of people employed fell by -40,800, with a drop of -51,000 in full-time jobs and a rise of +10,000 in part-time jobs. The decline was mostly among 15-24 year olds. Markets had expected overall employment to rise by +13,000.In Japan, June data for household spending rose +1.3% from the same month a year ago, down sharply from a +4.7% increase in May. Forecasts were for a +2.6% rise. Households were worried about the impact of US tariffs and persistent inflation on consumer activity. On a monthly basis, spending plunged -5.2% in June from May, reversing May's +4.6% rise and undershooting expectations of a -3% correction.And staying with Japan, they agreed with the US on a 15% "reciprocal" tariff. But Trump issued an executive order to charge 25% in a pique of retribution for slights no-one can quite understand. The Japanese have called them out on it, insisting they honour the negotiated deal. Now Bessent and Lutnick have agreed to not only correct the "administrative mistake" but refund the capricious tariff charges. The Japanese are back with the same deal as the EU has.Taiwan's export performance continues to astound. Exports from the island nation surged +42% in July from a year ago to a record US$56.7 bln, following the +34% increase in June. They were expecting 'only' a +29% rise on this basis. by any measure this strength is quite remarkable. It is all built on electronics. Taiwanese imports were up +21% on the same basis.In the US the appointment of Stephen Miran to fill a temporary vacancy as a board member of the US Federal Reserve adds in a protectionist sceptic to the voting mix. He is no fan of central bank independence. But oddly he has railed against the 'revolving door' of its members moving between Whitehouse/Treasury positions and the Fed governorships. He has now become exhibit A.An global reinsurer SwissRe says 2025 is shaping up to incur weather and climate losses exceeding US$150 bln, after a record $80 bln in the first half. That would make it its costliest year since 2011 (when the NZ and Japanese earthquakes occurred), but by far the costliest for just climate impacts.We should also note an AFR report that French dairy giant Lactalis, is the leading bidder for Fonterra's Mainland business after being granted exclusivity to negotiate for a buyout. They got the nod with a price rumoured to be something less than $4 bln.The UST 10yr yield is now at 4.28%, down -1 bp from Saturday and up +6 bps for the week.The price of gold will start today at US$3,398/oz, up US$3 from Saturday. But that has built to a +US$51 gain for the week, or up +1.5%. The uncertainties swirling around the new US tariff ruling are flowing through the New York gold price. Meanwhile the White House called the news 'misinformation' even though their agency had published to tariff ruling.American oil prices have slipped back again, down -50 USc to be just under US$63.50/bbl with the international Brent price down at just over US$66/bbl. These are more than -US$3.50 lower than week-ago levels.The Kiwi dollar is at 59.5 USc and down -10 bps from Saturday, up +½c from a week ago. Against the Aussie we are up +10 bps at 91.3 AUc. Against the euro we are unchanged at 51.1 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at just on 67.3, unchanged from Saturday and up +20 bps from this time last week.The bitcoin price started today at US$118,561 and up +1.5% from this time Saturday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been modest at just on +/-1.1%.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora. I'm David Chaston. And we will do this again tomorrow.

Tariffs are back at historic highs — and the pain is being felt at the kitchen table. A new analysis from Yale's Budget Lab estimates average U.S. households could lose $2,400 in income this year due to rising prices from tariffs, with working-class families losing over $1,300. What happens if the Fed steps in? And what does this mean for long-term trade policy?

Households are still finding it tough to pay for the basics, with high prices not easing yet. Stats NZ has revealed the cost of food rose 4.6 percent in the 12 months to June. It's largely driven by double-digit increases for products like red meat, cheese and milk Infometrics principal economist Brad Olsen says the general economy is still experiencing intense price pressure and weakness - which isn't comforting. "Mince prices are now hitting nearly $22 a kilo. You can't even have a cheap mince meal at a cheap price." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

More than 1000 households have been left without internet or mobile coverage in Golden Bay during today's wild weather, with residents even unable to dial 111. So far, the weather doesn't appear to have been as bad as was feared for the already-sodden Nelson, Tasman and Marlborough regions still recovering from the weekend's floods. But wild weather has battered the rest of the country, thunderstorms ringing out in Taranaki, as the region experienced widespread surface flooding, with emergency operations centres being set up in New Plymouth and Hawera. Nelson Tasman Civil Defence and Emergency Management Group controller Alec Louverdis spoke to Lisa Owen.

About this episode: American farms, restaurants, retailers, and households throw out nearly 30% of the food in our system, landfilling millions of tons of food each year and draining resources like land and energy. Households generate the most waste, with everyday cooks overbuying at grocery stores and throwing away a substantial portion of their purchases—but getting ahead of those scraps can make a big difference. In this episode: ReFED's Dana Gunders covers the environmental costs of food waste and shares immediate action items to better manage it. Guest: Dana Gunders is a national food systems expert and the president of ReFED—an organization that researches and promotes evidence-based action to end food waste. Host: Stephanie Desmon, MA, is a former journalist, author, and the director of public relations and communications for the Johns Hopkins Center for Communication Programs at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health.

In this episode of The Electorette, host Jen Taylor-Skinner speaks with Jessica Fulton, senior fellow with the Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies, about the 2025 budget bill—rebranded by conservatives as the "Big Beautiful Bill"—and the devastating consequences it could have for Black households. Rooted in the Joint Center's policy brief, Centering Black Households in the 2025 Tax Debate, the conversation exposes how proposals like extending the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act would continue to funnel wealth to high-income, disproportionately white households—while offering temporary, shallow benefits to working-class families. Jessica explains how policies that sound equitable on the surface—like tax deductions for tipped workers, child tax credits, and overtime exemptions—actually reinforce economic exclusion. Together, they explore how tax policy has long been used as a tool of racialized wealth-building and why understanding these “wonky” details is essential to building a more equitable economy. They also touch on the dangers of cutting Pell Grants, dismantling agencies that support Black-owned businesses, and using budget reconciliation to pass policies that will have generational consequences. This episode is a powerful call for greater transparency, stronger advocacy, and inclusive policymaking that truly supports all families—not just the wealthiest. Episode Chapters: (00:00) Tax Code, Wealth, and Racial Inequality The Federal Tax Code perpetuates racial inequality, with implications for Black households, through policies like the 2025 Budget Bill. (12:23) Tax Policy and Racial Disparities Changes to child tax credit privilege higher-income households, exclude poorest families, and perpetuate systemic inequities. (23:56) Tax Policy and Worker Income Nature's financial burdens on low-income workers, tax treatment of tips and overtime pay, and erosion of worker protections. (27:28) Tax Policies and Working Class Disadvantages Tax policies can privilege certain workers, have political motivations, and create disparities between demographic groups.

A growing number of people are turning to the Government for help just to keep the roof over their head. Data shows almost 400,000 households are receiving the accommodation supplement, which helps when rent or mortgage payments are unaffordable. It's costing bilions of dollars a year, and some are suggesting we need a better way. Money correspondent Susan Edmunds spoke to Lisa Owen.

Did you know that while nearly 90% of households in the U.S. have a garage, only 3% actually use it to park their cars? Yep — garages, once a proud symbol of suburban convenience, have quietly transformed into everything but car storage. We dive into the fascinating and often funny reality of what garages have become: makeshift gyms, clutter catch-alls, man caves, home offices, band practice zones, and even holiday decoration graveyards. We ask the big questions — Why have we stopped using garages for their original purpose?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dr. Drew shares a moment from a recent Kill Tony appearance that reminded him of Adam's mother, sparking a conversation about upbringing and emotional patterns. Adam then dives deep into the symbolism of sandwich-making, explaining how something as simple as a sandwich can represent parental care, national pride, and personal development.

We're excited to announce the release of Chap's new book "Managing Your Households Well" which examines how family leadership prepares us for church leadership.This episode unpacks two key insights from first half of the book. Chap discusses the delicate balance of authority and affection in both parenting and pastoring, and why authenticity matters more than maintaining a perfect appearance. Join us as we discover why managing our households well isn't about having a perfect family, but about leading with wisdom, respect, and genuine care.

One of the hallmarks of the rare genetic disorder Prader-Willi syndrome is hyperphagia, an insatiable desire to eat. Households with someone with Prader-Willi syndrome often have to take measures to restrict access to food, such as locking refrigerators, pantries, and trash cans. They must also deal with the complex behavioral challenges associated with the condition. Earlier this year, Soleno Therapeutics won approval for VykatXR, the first FDA-approved therapy for treating hyperphagia. We spoke to Anish Bhatnagar, CEO of Soleno Therapeutics, about Prader-Willi syndrome, its therapy to treat the condition, and the significance of having a medicine that can address hyperphagia associated with the disorder.

“The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.'” - Matthew 25:40Some exciting things are happening that will give you more ways to help “the least of these” in God's Kingdom. Brian Holtz joins us today with details about how we can all have the greatest impact in helping those in need.Brian Holtz is the CEO of Compass Financial Ministry and the author of Financial Discipleship for Families: Intentionally Raising Faithful Children.A Call to Reach the MarginsWhen it comes to helping families in financial crisis, good intentions aren't always enough. Real transformation requires more than quick fixes—it takes relationships, discipleship, and time. That's the heart behind Making Ends Meet, a small group video study from Compass Financial Ministry designed to equip churches and communities to walk with struggling families toward lasting financial health.Most financial ministries have historically focused on middle—and upper-income families, but Compass felt God pushing them to address those with no financial margin at all—those who aren't just managing poorly but truly don't have enough income to meet basic needs.In response, Compass partnered with ministries that specialize in serving low-income families to learn the unique challenges these households face, many of which go far beyond budgeting.Why Money Alone Isn't EnoughSimply giving money doesn't create lasting change. It may provide short-term relief, but study after study shows that injecting money into poverty doesn't solve the deeper problem.That's not a reason to stop giving—it's a reason to start giving differently.Jesus didn't just heal people and walk away. He invited them to follow Him. That's the model we need to follow—combining financial help with relational investment.When someone is experiencing financial hardship, it's often not just a matter of dollars and cents—it's about identity, family history, and deeply ingrained beliefs. That's why true transformation requires more than a checkbook; it requires presence.When we invest relationally, we gain credibility. That allows us to speak into someone's life in a way that supports their heart and habits.Understanding the Emotional BarriersOne of the surprising lessons Compass learned during the development of Making Ends Meet is how emotional the journey out of poverty can be.Many poor communities are deeply interdependent. They share what they have and support each other in powerful ways, like the early church in Acts.But when someone begins to move toward financial stability, it can create fear: Will I lose my community if I start to thrive? Will I be accepted if I have more than those around me?This anxiety can be paralyzing, which is why patience and prayer are so critical. These are generational challenges.
