The Commerce Commission is proposing to give grocery suppliers a leg up in their dealings with the supermarket giants. The commission has proposed updates to the Grocery Supply Code, including stopping retailers charging suppliers for stocking shelves and requiring retailers to keep records on how they're complying with certain parts of the code. Night 'n Day general manager Matthew Lane says this crackdown comes with encouraging implications for the sector. "What's most encouraging for us is that the CommComm's cracking down on the fact that other retailers are being charged more for their wholesale than what the supermarkets are actually retailing the same products for."

The Commerce Commission's making moves to level the playing field in the grocery sector. It's found the big supermarket players are shovelling in billions of dollars a year through supplier charges and promotional pricing, which largely isn't reaching consumers. It's proposed a simplified grocery code that limits the range of payments supermarkets can charge suppliers. Grocery Commissioner Pierre van Heerden told Mike Hosking it's about taking away all the carve-outs. He says smaller suppliers currently have difficulty pushing back against large supermarkets because of the power imbalance. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In May 2025, rice prices in Japan hit 4,233 yen or about $30 per five kilograms - about twice as high as they were a year ago. Prices have gone up for over 15 weeks in a row. In response, the Japanese government released 600,000 tons of rice from its emergency food stockpiles - usually stored for natural disasters like earthquakes. But prices remain high. Supermarkets in Japan are announcing they will sell rice from other countries like South Korea and...even gasp America! Yes, I am talking about that most blasphemous of rice strains: Calrose. Japan is nearly 100% self sufficient in rice. On the surface, that is something to be proud of. But not so much when you consider the system built around that number. In today's video, we return to my favorite carb, and dive into Japan's ongoing rice price crisis.

A new plan is being touted as a way to fast track shaking up the grocery sector. The New Zealand Initiative is proposing allowing new entrants to enter the market, rather than forcing any break-up of the existing supermarket companies. It outlines the need for fast track plans for rezoning, consenting, overseas investment clearance, and a more neutral stance from the government. Chief Economist Eric Crampton told Mike Hosking a new entrant should get a head start. He says within five years the government would find out whether planning barriers are what's held companies back. Foodstuffs and Woolworths are both members of the New Zealand Initiative.

The Grocery Action Group is unconvinced by a proposal to rapidly add competition to the grocery sector. The New Zealand Initiative wants the Government to introduce a "fast track pathway" to allow new entrants to enter the market, rather than forcing any break-up of the existing supermarket companies. It includes streamlining rezoning, consenting and investment clearance processes. The group's Sue Chetwin told Ryan Bridge it's more of a nice to have. She says to get more competitors, the government will need to force existing supermarkets to give up some of their stores. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I hope you are following the butter debate, specifically the Costco part of it. Why? Because it's an insight into how the world works, especially the economic world, and why Nicola Willis and her crusade to convince us supermarkets are ripping us off might be wrong. Willis sighted Costco the other day when she once again reminded us she is back to business on the supermarkets and looking to break them up, or twist their arms, or regulate them where it hurts, so we can all feel so much better about the price of a trolley full of goods. What she knew, she said, was competition is good for prices. As I tried to say, that is school cert economics and, although partially right, isn't the whole answer. Butter at Costco is $10 per kilo. Elsewhere you can pay $10 and get half that. In that very example is part of the story - it costs different amounts all over the place on any given day, depending on where you go, or when you go. It's a bit like petrol. Also a bit like petrol, the end price is driven by international pricing. We pay international prices because we make the stuff and sell it. Its how we make a living and we should be celebrating this. If farmers weren't doing so well we would be truly stuffed. Costco, because they are large, as in globally large, buy more of anything than anyone here locally. Because of that their price per unit drops and their margins are smaller. Scale counts Also, as the consumers group pointed out, it's a loss-leader for Costco. In other words they are losing money on every pack they sell. Why? Because it gets you in the store to buy other stuff. Remember, at Costco you have already paid a membership fee to be there. So their butter isn't really $10 per kilo. They are eating the difference, as Trump would say, in the hope you buy stuff in aisle eight. Lots of supermarkets run loss leaders. They also put chocolate biscuits at eye line to tempt you. It's a clever business. But Costco and their butter is not a real economic equation. And there is no magic in their pricing, the way Nicola seems to think there is.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

If you're a baker, or just like to smear it on your toast in the morning, you've probably noticed the price of butter steadily climbing in recent months. But there is one place where prices haven't risen so much - and where people can get butter much more cheaply than in other supermarkets. It's Costco, in Auckland's north-west. Money Correspondent Susan Edmunds spoke to Lisa Owen.

Farmers are renewing the call for greater transparency from the major supermarkets. Woolworths has announced its plans to slash the price of up to 400 of its products by 10 percent. But it hasn't specified what products are subject to the discounts -- and the National Farmers Federation warns farmers will likely foot the bill. Rural Editor Emily Minney spoke with the NFF's Horticulture Council Executive Director Richard Shannon about the concerns.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Warning Wrapped in Fiction Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged used to be considered dystopian fiction. Now, for many of us watching the modern world unravel, it feels more like a prophetic blueprint. In this episode, we dive into the eerie parallels between Rand's vision of a crumbling society—and the slow collapse playing out around us today. The Rise of Incompetence In Atlas Shrugged, skilled workers, engineers, and innovators walk away as bureaucrats and paper-pushers take control. Sound familiar? Today, government agencies balloon with red tape while infrastructure, like trains, power grids, and bridges, worsens yearly. Expertise is ignored. Bureaucracy is rewarded. And the people who still know how to do things are being sidelined. Demonizing the Productive Rand warned about the demonization of success. Look around: entrepreneurship is labeled “privilege,” working too hard is “toxic,” and profit is a dirty word. In the novel, those who produced were taxed and regulated into silence. In real life, we see a culture that punishes competence and celebrates mediocrity. This isn't theory—it's happening now. Blackouts, Shortages, and Stalled Supply Chains In the book, trains stop running. Entire cities lose power. Goods vanish from shelves. It's no longer far-fetched. Between supply chain collapses, energy instability, and labor strikes, we're seeing real-world echoes of Rand's fictional breakdown. Factories closing. Supermarkets thin on essentials. Delivery delays are stretching from days to months. Who Is John Galt? In Atlas Shrugged, the productive minority goes into hiding, refusing to support a system that punishes effort. In our world, many are quitting high-stress jobs, moving off-grid, or finding ways to live with less government and more independence. That's where preppers shine—we've been preparing for this shift all along. Lessons for Preppers Don't count on the system. It's already showing cracks. Reward competence—in yourself and in your community. Value production over appearances. Skill beats status every time. Build your parallel systems—food, power, comms, security. Be ready to walk away from broken structures before they fall on you. Final Thought Whether or not you agree with Ayn Rand's philosophy, one thing's clear: Atlas Shrugged isn't just a book anymore. It's a warning. And it's being played out in slow motion. Preppers aren't shocked—we've seen it coming. But now it's time to act like we mean it. Because when the world shrugs… you'd better be standing.

More than half of consumer spending is dominated one way or another by a collection of monopolies, duopolies and quadropolies that generate higher prices and profits than would be normal if there was true and tough competition, as a myriad of market studies and inquiries have found for supermarkets, fuel retailing, building materials, electricity, banking, insurance and real estate agencies. Twenty years of finger-wagging and report writing has failed in all of these sectors, except for telecommunications, where an aggressive breakup of a monopoly (Telecom) and regulation of number portability and interchange fees, along with the arrival of third competitor in 2degrees, sparked a flourishing of competition and ever-lower prices for ever-more data. The Reserve Bank called it the “2degrees Effect” in creating deflation for a significant part of the economy. Bernard Hickey talks to Monopoly Watch spokesman and one of the founders of 2degrees, Tex Edwards, about how to create the “2degrees Effect” for supermarkets, banking and electricity.

The "guessing game" continues over how New Zealand will be affected by new tariffs around the world. Data —due out tomorrow morning— is expected to show inflation has risen for the first time in almost three years.
