This October, shoppers in Japanese supermarkets are seeing the biggest price hikes in almost two generations.For the past year, Japan's supermarket industry has shielded customers from a 48% rise in import prices — much of that driven by the high cost of energy and the sustained collapse of the yen to a 24-year low against the US dollar. But retailers are now passing on these price hikes to individuals. the Japanese government is worried - because the country has a huge reliance on international imports. Only 38% of the food needed to feed the Japanese population is made on its shores. Darcy and Sascha today ask the question - can Japan actually feed itself?We're asking our UK audience to help share our business news podcast – The Dive – with friends and family.

Housing. The world's biggest asset class. For decades, housing has been the domain of mum-and-pop investors and the big financial institutions have stayed away. But over the past decade that has changed, at least in America. Wall Street wants to come for your family home.

We're feeling the impacts of inflation and cost of living pressures. In the UK, inflation is at 9.9%, in the US it is 8.3%, in Australia it is 6.1%. We can hear you saying what does 6% or 9% mean? Essentially 9% inflation means that prices are up 9% or, put another way, your money buys 9% less. Because of this, we're seeing strikes from unions across the world - airport workers in Germany, teachers in Norway, air traffic controllers in France. One industry that seems to be in the middle of strike action around the world - rail workers. Earlier this year in the United Kingdom. Right now in Australia. And recently avoided in the United States. Today Alec and Sascha talk about what's going on with rail strikes all over the world, and ask is there more at play than just the cost of living and inflation story?We're asking our UK audience to help share our business news podcast – The Dive – with friends and family.
