Send us a question/idea/opinion direct via text message!The May Cotality Home Value Index (HVI) results are officially in, delivering a perfectly flat 0.0% national movement. While regional variability persists under the surface - with Christchurch nudging up 0.4% and Wellington softening by 0.3% - the broader market continues to track sideways as buyers hold the pricing power but sellers refuse to capitulate. This week, Nick Goodall and Kelvin Davidson answer a brilliant listener question from Matthew, digging into the data to debunk the mainstream media narrative that a "glut" of townhouses is dragging down the Auckland property market. We also unpack the surprising resilience of the new build sector with building consents climbing to 39,000, dismantle claims that New Zealand has become a "tax haven" for Australian investors, and analyse RBNZ Chief Economist Paul Conway's latest hints on short-term inflation.This week we discuss:May HVI National Breakdown: Why a 0.0% national change signals a long, plain-vanilla winter of sideways tracking.The Auckland Townhouse Myth: Breaking down the suburb-level data proving townhouse values are performing similarly to standalone homes (both down 3% annually).Building Consent Resilience: Why the current annualised track of 39,000 consents shows a construction sector vastly more robust than during the Global Financial Crisis (GFC).The Australian "Tax Haven" Headline: Dismantling trans-Tasman media hype regarding stamp duty, bright-line changes, and cross-border tax complexities.Paul Conway's Inflation Hints: Insights from the RBNZ Chief Economist's recent webinar and what it reveals about the internal vs. external OCR committee split.The 5-Month Election Runway: Anticipating the upcoming structural slowdown as capital gains tax debates re-emerge.Sign up for news and insights or contact on LinkedIn, X @NickGoodall_CL or @KDavidson_CL and email ngoodall@cotality.com or kdavidson@cotality.comThis podcast is for educational and entertainment purposes only and does not constitute financial, legal, or tax advice.

Higher mortgage rates have given the Reserve Bank a 'bit of breathing space', its chief economist says. Paul Conway, one of the Reserve Bank committee members who voted to keep the OCR on hold last week, said the market is doing some of the work for the central bank.

I can help Steve Abel. Steve is the Green's agriculture bloke and he wants an urgent inquiry into the Wattie's and Heinz mess in Hawkes Bay. He is wasting his time. Not because he shouldn't be concerned, because he should. We should all be concerned. But the answers he seeks are already readily available. He asks about four main things: the regulatory environment, energy costs, foreign owner indifference, and anti-competitive behaviour from the supermarkets. The website Newsroom wrote a solid piece about all this several weeks ago in which it was broadly concluded the troubles in Hawke's Bay have been coming for a decade, so some late, breaking alarmism via yet another committee addresses nothing. Costs in this country are too high. I refer you to Paul Conway's speech last week to a bunch of financial operators. We are unproductive and have been for years. Supermarkets have indeed played a part. The home brand scenario damaged the more premium brands and Wattie's etc have suffered because of it. Now, is that anti-competitive? Or offering more competition? Does the punter want choice and price range? I would have thought yes. On the energy costs, Wattie's and Heinz have both spoken to this. Our energy costs are ruinous. Gas, or lack of it, has killed a lot of manufacturing. The Greens might like to ask themselves why they got obsessed with solar panels and banned gas before there were enough solar panels to cover the energy gaps. The old regulatory environment is an interesting one. Labour and Nicola Willis have jawboned rules and regulations and watchdogs and Commerce Commission investigations, but to what avail? Nothing has changed, which either means there is nothing to change, or they are useless. Foreign owner indifference, I would suggest, that sounds a bit xenophobic. Yes, I know what he means – could a massive player in Detroit cut ties without losing sleep in little old New Zealand? Sure. But no one who invests and runs businesses does so with indifference. Between the dumping, the cheap stuff consumers prefer, the size of our market, and the ruinous cost of energy, it's all there as a combustible recipe to blow up a lot of business models. Peas in a bag and peaches in a tin are the victims. The inquiry is not needed. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The problem with people like Paul Conway, who is the Chief Economist at the Reserve Bank, is they “know” some stuff. They sound good in a speech, but their record exposes them badly. Paul gave a speech this week to the National Financial Advisers conference. He talked about how expensive this country is, and he talked about our lack of productivity. If the speech had been a school project, he would probably have got a good mark. You couldn't argue with what he said. We aren't very efficient. Things like construction cost more here than anywhere in the OECD. We were once okay at productivity, but we aren't anymore and our real ability to buy stuff is going backwards. He noted before 2020 our purchasing power was growing faster than the OECD's. Now ask yourself a question – what happened in 2020 and post 2020? Covid of course. Covid was no one's fault (well, possibly the Chinese). But the response was the key and, in that response, as is well documented, we blew it. We blew it sky high and ended up with inflation north of 7%, some of which was over seen by Mr Conway and his mate Adrian Orr at the Reserve Bank. Paul argues inflation is critical given the cash rate helps anchor prices. Does it? He cites the prices that make us the most expensive place in the world: rates, power, and insurance. Did the cash rate do anything for those? No. Other prices he cited, like butter and lamb, are also expensive and expensive for obvious and well documented reasons. And, ironically, expensive for good reason for NZ Inc. Part of the issue is market size. It's why Walmart is successful. It has a population base of over 300 million. We don't. Supply of goods is cheaper per unit when you buy millions of them. We don't. The productivity question has been bounced around for years and never really been solved. Many people don't even agree what productivity is. Is it a robot replacing a human? Is it building a road faster? Is it inventing a thing that changes the world? Part of the reason the Reserve Bank blew Covid so badly is they write speeches like Conway's. They live in Wellington in small rooms theorising. The moment you give them a bit of real world, look what they do with it. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

With more than 40 years in the American Fire Service, Paul Conway's journey—from firefighter to assistant chief of the Milwaukee Fire Department—is a masterclass in leadership earned the hard way. Throughout his career, he served at every level of the organization—operational, tactical, and strategic—leading emergency response, managing complex resources, and overseeing multidisciplinary teams with a steady hand and a servant's heart. But what makes Paul's story powerful isn't just the titles; it's the lessons learned from a life full of mistakes, growth, and reflection. In 1985, he founded Conway Shield with a vision to become the nation's leading provider of protective gear, safety equipment, and training—proof that leadership doesn't retire, it evolves. In this episode, we talk about what it really means to “be where your feet are,” to enjoy the view even in the chaos, and to remember that in the fire service, you don't have to do this job—you get to.

How do you feel about being told you need to spend more money? That's what the Reserve Bank's chief economist wants you to do. As expected, the bank's governor announced yesterday that there would be no change in the official cash rate because the bank doesn't want to do anything that could put the brakes on the economic recovery. Which some people are feeling the benefits of, while others aren't. Which the Reserve Bank describes as an uneven recovery. Meaning we're still in for a bit of a haul before we all feel some sort of benefit. Tell that, though, to the bank's chief economist Paul Conway who is giving us all a bit of a hurry along, saying people need to stop being so cautious with their money and get out and spend more. How realistic is that, do you think? If you're not having a “tell him he's dreaming moment”, then you must be one of the people who are already feeling the benefit of an economic recovery. But, generally, what planet is Paul Conway on, telling us to spend more? Because we're doing that already. Not out of choice. Not because we're feeling particularly flush. But we're spending more just to get by. Two days ago, new numbers came out showing that grocery prices are still going up. White bread prices up 57.9 percent in the past year. Chocolate up 20 percent. Not to mention mince. That's pink gold these days. Which is why I think this statement by the Reserve Bank's chief economist that we need to stop being so tight and start spending more is just ridiculous.

The Official Cash Rate has been left unchanged, 2.25%, expected by all the commentators, but perhaps less expected was a dovish view of the future. It was the new Reserve Bank Governor's, well she's not that new I suppose, the newish Reserve Bank Governor's first OCR review, having come on board at the end of '25. She is pretty optimistic about the economy. She said it will continue to recover, but she understands that many households are not feeling it yet. Must be rather annoying being told, no, everything's fine, everything's turning around, everything's great, while you're looking down the back of the couch for coins to get the kids' school lunches. But there are great numbers coming out of our primary industry sector and thank God for you. Just take a moment on your tractor, in your shed, on the motorbike, in the fields, just take a little moment to have a big deep breath and consider yourself congratulated and thanked. Kiwifruit, dairy, sheep, beef, yet again that sector, our primary industry sector, is doing the heavy lifting to keep the engine of the economy running. How many times? And we should point out, you were doing it with one hand and one leg tied behind your back for much of the past decade. So thank you again for keeping us going, producing stuff that the rest of the world wants. However, we can't depend on you, we shouldn't be as reliant upon you as we all are. Trends change, markets change, you know, all of a sudden, the world will decide that, oh I don't know, refined sugar is the way to go, not protein, and all of a sudden, the world will change. Unlikely to go for refined sugar, but you know what I mean. You're also vulnerable to climate, you know, a good season needs good weather. You're vulnerable to external markets. To a certain extent you are not the author of your own fortune, you are very dependent on outside and external sources. And if you're dependent on that, so too are we. We need to find other strands, other sectors to build up. You know, technology would be ideal and we've made some great marks in that, bioscience, fantastic, but not houses. Let's not look at an unproductive sector of the economy to provide us with wealth again. House prices have come back a little in the North Island, Auckland's average asking price is once again over a million dollars, and you should see the tat you get for that. That's up 9% from December. Tale of two islands: Christchurch, Queenstown, Otago, Southland, all seen significant increases in prices. But the “drop in value” has seen a drop in confidence. Reserve Bank's Paul Conway says the reduced prominence of the wealth effect from higher house prices is a risk to the economic recovery. It's a big change, he says, for the New Zealand economy to not have that increase in house prices as a kicker to aggregate demand. He says there may well have been structural changes in the housing market that means an increase in demand for housing no longer equates with higher house prices. And it's true, for a couple of decades Kiwi property owners have been living off the wealth of their main asset. There were astronomical rises in the value of homes around the country and people felt wealthy and spent like they were wealthy. A chronic undersupply of homes, high migration, low interest rates saw huge rises in the value of homes around the country and so people spent like they were rich. All of a sudden, a home became far more than a place you lived in, it was an asset with equity which you could use to springboard yourself into wealth, as so many of the ads that we ran on this station told you. People spent like drunken sailors and the economy boomed. Fast track to the post Covid slump and people have seen their house prices drop – in some horrible cases they owe more on their house than they can sell it for. And as Paul Conway says, there may well have been structural changes to the housing market. High prices for the essentials means there's less disposable income in households and if one of you has been made redundant, it has been a tough few years. We've lost our groove. But as Reserve Bank Governor Dr. Anne Bremen told Mike Hosking this morning, there's enormous potential in the New Zealand economy and there are reasons to be optimistic. “I think it's a great economy. I think New Zealanders are underestimating actually the potential going forward in the New Zealand economy. We're already seeing some sectors doing really well, agriculture, manufacturing is starting going, and I do expect this to broaden in this year. So I'm very positive. We actually think there's quite a lot of what we call spare capacity in the economy, so we think that the economy can grow at a higher pace without causing so much inflationary pressure because there is still high unemployment, firms can increase, you know, manufacturing without having, they're starting to invest actually, which is also really good to see. So we do think there is spare capacity. And I know people, there is a lot of good potential in this economy. People should be a bit more optimistic.” There you go. So many people are telling us to be optimistic. We must be optimistic. We're all going to be optimistic, we're going to stay after class until we're all optimistic. Okay, I mean, a little bit hard when you've got the, you know, the infrastructure plan coming out yesterday which said that pretty much we need so much and we can't afford it. But there is room to grow in the economy as Dr. Bremen said, and as people know. But if you're not feeling it, you're not going to be spending. Back in the day when we were using our houses as ATMs, I mean I was one of them, we bought a house in Grey Lynn because it was the only place we could afford. I think it was about $250,000 —might have been closer to $300,000— which seemed a fortune at the time, but then the house price just went up and up and up so you could afford to do the renos. We could take it from an uninsulated place where the floorboards were open to the bare dirt floor underneath, as it had been since 1890. You could do the renos, you could do the landscaping of the garden, you were spending and New Zealand businesses were the ones who benefited from that. So if you're not doing that, where are the sustainable businesses going to get their work? If people don't feel confident enough about improving their homes or, you know, using the money that they've built up in their homes, how do you replace that quite significant chunk of money go round? Do you feel confident? Do you feel optimistic? Can you see light at the end of the tunnel? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As recently as late May, the Reserve Bank thought it wouldn't need to cut rates until well into 2025. However, a batch of leading indicators revealed a slump in economic activity through June, and the RBNZ decided to hit the brakes by lowering the official cash rate in its August monetary policy statement. Reserve Bank chief economist Paul Conway talks to Bernard Hickey about why the RBNZ decided to change course, what kinds of data they are lacking compared to other central banks, and what they can't change about our economy.

Think hard before you jump.  That was a quote from the Reserve Bank economist Paul Conway in a speech this week, as he tried to explain monetary policy, inflation and our general mess of an economy.  The comment was, in part, an answer to a question about whether the approach the bank had taken to the economy was the reason why so many New Zealanders were leaving.  "Think hard before you jump." The prognosis he went on to say was good.  He is right, to an extent. It always comes right.  This country, in fact this planet, is in a mess right now. But it hasn't, and it won't be, that way forever. History is instructive. The "leaving New Zealand" debate has been had for decades.  We have been in a hole many times before. Young people have hated the place dozens of times over.  Half of Australia is filled with aggrieved Kiwis who bailed first chance they got. But I detect a slight difference this time. A lot of people ask, or say, that they don't know if the Government can fix it this time around.  That explains the current polling around confidence. Post election confidence went up because we had acted and we had lanced the Labour boil. But then reality came back for a visit.  The books were worse than they thought, there were hidden dramas, fiscal cliffs, the economy got really ugly, and things started to bite. Whether this Government can turn that around is still an open question eight months on from the vote. Plus, it's winter and it's always worse in winter.  For what it's worth, I don't have a shadow of a doubt the Reserve Bank has made it worse than it needs to be. But I was around for Robert Muldoon and he was a calamity of historic proportions. It took Roger Douglas, and a series of deeply traumatic decisions, to right that ship. But he did it.  This lot, with fortitude, gonads and no fear, can probably repeat the trick.  But, as we have seen this week in surveys in Australia, they are just as unhappy. The millionaires in Britain are bailing in record numbers. Lots of people have lots of grievances.  We are not alone.  It doesn't make our plight any less stressful. But we aren't the only basket case in town. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Pastor Paul reflects on Acts 17:23, where Paul the Apostle addresses the Athenians' worship of an "unknown god," urging us to recognize and name the divine presence that already exists in our lives, from moments of sorrow to joy. He challenges us to see God not as a distant entity but as a present reality woven into our everyday experiences.

Speaker: Rev. Dr. Paul Conway

The guys kick off this week's discussion with a look at our house price index for January, which showed a smaller rise in values (0.4%) than in both November and December. With mortgage rates still pretty high, a mixture of weaker and stronger months for property values shouldn't be a surprise. So then it's just a choice of which adjective/synonym to use to describe patchiness!Two other notable items last week were Andrew Bayly's announcement that the Government will be looking to loosen the CCCFA rules again over the next few months – adding to some impetus for the property market – but also Paul Conway's (RBNZ Chief Economist) speech which poured cold water on the idea that the official cash rate might be cut soon.Elsewhere, mortgage lending activity continues to rise from a low base, consumer and business confidence are generally trending higher (but not consistently), while dwelling consents are still falling – and HUD was in the news for suggesting that the annual total, currently 37,000, could dip to around 32,000.Coming up this week – big labour market news (unemployment rate likely to be higher but due to more workers not job losses), mortgage lending by the term of the loan chosen, and CoreLogic's Buyer Classification figures for January.All in all, plenty to discuss – oh, and the cricket at Bay Oval too.Sign up for news and insights or contact on LinkedIn, Twitter @NickGoodall_CL or @KDavidson_CL and email nick.goodall@corelogic.co.nz or kelvin.davidson@corelogic.co.nz

The Reserve Bank has poured cold water over growing speculation for an early rates cut this year. In a webinar delivered to the public, RBNZ chief economist Paul Conway said non-tradeable inflation came in higher than predicted, at 5.9 percent. HSBC chief economist Paul Bloxham says it's likely the RBNZ won't cut the OCR until the fourth quarter of 2024. "The economy has slowed a lot and inflation is coming down, but as Conway pointed out, inflation is still too high- it's well above target."

This is an episode of ReThinking Sport, our series created in collaboration with Portas, the global strategy consultancy dedicated to sport and physical activity.  Today's guest is Baroness Sue Campbell of Loughborough, the former chair of UK Sport who is now The FA's Director of Women's Football. We talk about the UEFA Women's Euros, currently taking place across England. We use this as a jumping off point to ask, what are The FA's hopes and plans for the women's game, how will the Women's Super League evolve, why has The FA decided against developing a relationship with private equity and what are the implications of these decisions. Sue Campbell is as ever, a straight talker and the result is a fascinating insight in to the game's present and future.One of the big ambitions of this series has been to look at the football market through the eyes of the people who own and control the clubs and the people in charge of the leagues and the sports' governing bodies. So previous episodes have featured Rick Parry, the chair of the EFL, Mark Bullingham, CEO of The FA and Kelly Simmons, head of the women's professional game at The FA and the WSL.On the club ownership side, we've had guests including Andy Holt, owner of Accrington Stanley, and Paul Conway, head of Pacific Media Group, one of the leading proponents of a multi-club ownership model, which is a feature of today's conversation with our guests Brett Johnson and Fabrice Bocquet. Every episode of ReThinking Sport can be found by searching Unofficial Partner via the big podcast providers, including Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts or via your favourite podcast app. Alternatively, you can go direct to unofficialpartner.com and search ‘Portas' and you'll find series one and two in their entirety.
