Independent economist Tony Alexander is back to give us the lowdown on the housing market, interest rates, and what’s driving investment sentiment in 2025. He unpacks why lending is still lagging behind 2021 levels, despite a lift in business and consumer credit, and why the cost of living remains stubbornly high, with some commodity prices reportedly up around 17%. Why are private debt levels looking lower in the South Island than in the North? What happened to the housing market recovery some expected late last year? And why does Tony believe interest rates could be close to hitting their floor?

A quick catch-up with Napier Port’s CEO Todd Dawson reveals never a dull moment. Autonomous trucks and dredging to deepen shipping channels are just some of the things on the back of a strong half-year profit result. Increased container volumes and an earlier pipfruit season has helped boost the numbers.

In this quick bite, Ed McKnight from Opes Partners challenges the perception that property investment is low-risk, explaining how leverage amplifies both gains and losses. How exactly does the "mortgage magnifier" work? Ed shares how even a 5% property value change can result in far bigger equity shift for investors.

After recent rockiness in both equity and housing markets, we revisit the classic shares vs. property discussion with Ed McKnight, Resident Economist at Opes Partners. While he believes there’s a “buyer’s market”, Ed cautions that housing might be riskier than you think, and that leverage can amplify your losses as well as your returns. Is Ed worried about the impacts of climate and insurability for property investors? What makes a property rentable in 2025? How does our lower birth rate affect demand for different types of housing? And with New Zealand close to a 10-year high in property listings, Ed shares how Opes Partners identifies undervalued growth areas (like Christchurch in the pre-covid era).

Volatility doesn't seem to be scaring off Kiwi investors—could it be teaching us new strategies? In this bonus clip, Susannah Batley from Sharesies & Paul McBeth (The Bottom Line) discuss how investors are adapting to market turbulence by shifting toward ETFs and diversified funds rather than retreating.

In the lead-up to the Australian election, we speak to Scott Phillips of The Motley Fool on markets, party politics—and of course, tariffs. Scott believes that market recovery is only a matter of time, reminding us of the roaring bull market that followed massive covid sell-offs. While he’s optimistic about the long-term, he also has sobering predictions for the near-term impact of tariffs on the Australian economy and beyond. Is one particular party better for the economy? How much does the election outcome really affect the share market? Scott has thoughts on how both parties' proposed policies might affect Australia's budget deficit, and what really helps with long-term prosperity and a healthy economy. Plus, a hopeful message for young Aussies about the power of time in the market.

The NZX50 index had fallen about 3.7 percent at the close of market today - as Donald Trump's tariffs continue to reverberate globally. It hasn't had a fall of this magnitude since the pandemic. Sharesies Co-CEO Brooke Roberts says it's hard to say how long markets will keep rattling around. "Look, it's unprecedented times in terms of the shock that has happened to the markets at the moment based off the back of the tariffs - and the ripple effect that's happening to economies." BusinessDesk reports Trade Minister Todd McClay says the NZ Embassy in Washington will raise concerns over tariffs to the US trade representative.
