The US market ended the week up 5.7%, which saw it finish 12.7% off its February highs, having been down 18.9% at its weakest point and very close to bear market territory. Most other markets finished the week slightly lower, with the local NZX 50 down 1.7%. Despite last week's partial tariff backtrack from the White House, the US 10-year bond yield ended the week at 4.5%, up from just under 4.0% seven days earlier. That was the biggest weekly jump since 2001, and it comes as investors exit US assets in favour of other jurisdictions. The US dollar index fell to its lowest level since July 2023, and the greenback is down 9.0% from where it was in mid-January.

The stock market has seen the biggest daily fall since the Covid-19 period, as a result of Donald Trump's tariffs announced last week. Beijing responded with its own retaliatory tariffs, which caused the S&P 500 to fall another 6%. Craigs Investment Partners Director Mark Lister says it's a historic fall. "It's pretty rare for things to fall as much as that in a two-day period." Lister talks to Mike Hosking about where New Zealand sits in the aftermath. LISTEN ABOVE.

It's been a good year for the local sharemarket. The NZX 50 index is up 11.0 per cent so far, which sees it on track for its best year in four. Most of our biggest companies have performed well, but one notable exception is Spark. It's share price is down more than 40 per cent in 2024, making it one of the biggest decliners across the entire exchange. There are several reasons for the disappointing performance. Some of these are a function of the economic backdrop, while others are of the company's own making.

The latest inflation figures will be a highlight in the US this week, while Fed Chair Jerome Powell is scheduled to speak on Thursday in Dallas about the economic outlook. Closer to home, the Reserve Bank of New Zealand's survey of expectations will be in focus, as will the latest housing market report from the Real Estate Institute. On the corporate front, the international reporting season is winding down but we'll still hear from Home Depot, Tencent, Burberry, Walt Disney and Alibaba. There's quite a bit to monitor across the NZX and ASX too, with earnings releases due from Goodman Property, Mainfreight and Infratil here in Aotearoa, and from Aristocrat and Xero across the Tasman.

The Government's received advice on how Kiwibank can better compete with the large Australian-owned banks. It's in response to the Commerce Commission market study on personal banking.

It looks almost certain that the CEO of Fletcher Building is gone. The company put the shares in a trading halt yesterday, and announced that Ross Taylor would be reconsidering his position. Which says to me- he's resigning tomorrow. I can't see a way for him to come out and say he's not resigning after that statement's been made. And if he does go, which seems more likely than not, I doubt very much he'll be alone. I suspect there will be other members of the executive - and maybe even the board - walking out that door with him. And I don't think anyone's gonna cry any tears over this. Fletcher Building is not a business that you can argue is doing right by its shareholders. There have been calls for the board and the CEO to resign for at least two years, because the company just keeps lurching from one problem to the other. There was the high rise disaster, then the convention centre disaster, then the GIB board disaster, then the pipes problem over in Australia, and then just last week- the $180 million cost blow out on the Convention Centre and the Wellington parking building. As Sam Stubbs from Simplicity pointed out when he was on our show calling for the resignations last week- in the last two years, the NZX has gone up 7.5 percent and Fletcher Building's shares have gone down 16.5 percent. That's not average performance, that's a very bad performance. Meanwhile, the directors asked for a 25 percent pay increase last year, until they got told that was a bad idea and withdrew it. And Taylor, if you listen to the analysts, gets paid about three times what other CEOs of similar sized listed companies get paid. There are significant shareholders who are pretty cross, and I don't reckon they'll settle for just Ross Taylor's scalp tomorrow. I would expect not just one resignation.

Each week BusinessDesk and the NZ Herald's Cooking the Books podcast tackles a different money problem. Today, it's why ETF trading is down, and what it means for your strategy. Hosted by Frances Cook. After a couple of years of hype and covid boredom, it looks like the shares investing scene is crashing back to earth. Figures from the NZX show New Zealand ETF trading down about 75% in the last year, aka, investors aren't buying and selling as many of those Exchange Traded Funds. There are a few things that could be feeding this trend, and I suspect higher interest rates and a higher cost of living are part of it. We'll get into those as part of the discussion today. But another factor is that if other investors aren't so keen on shares right now, does this mean there's an opportunity for the investors who stay in the game? Quite possibly. For the latest podcast I talked to Dean Anderson founder and CEO of Kernel.
