Chris Wilson, co-CEO of Harbor Asset Management, joins me as the spotlight goes on the narrative that bonds are dead going forward. Are institutional investors whistling past the graveyard by over-allocating to fixed income amid persistent geo-political tension, rising debt concerns, and uncertain market correlations in 2026? Or are many everyday, self-directed investors skipping bonds to chase stock upside, missing out on vital 'cushioning' for the volatility that may be here to stay. We may be wrong about bonds either way.Book in a free 15-min phone call with Darcy Ungaro (financial adviser).Sign up to the fortnightly newsletter!Thank You Swyftx: With over 1 million customers across New Zealand and Australia.

The RBNZ's OCR decision lands Wednesday, 18 February, and it's expected to hold at 2.25%. The deeper truth? Australian banks (ANZ, ASB, BNZ, Westpac) dominate New Zealand's mortgage market, influence media and politics, and shape house prices and the economy at large.

Latest data estimates New Zealanders has lost $1.6 billion to online threats in the past year, with this expected to grow without intervention.
