    Consumer confidence sinks to lowest level ANZ survey has recorded

    https://www.stuff.co.nz/business/127...y-has-recorded

    not surprising

    house prices not rising anymore the big one as NZ economy so reliant on the wealth effect from housing.
    add in high inflation now making everyone poorer and i mean pretty much everyone as wages , dividends etc etc dont rise enough to make up for rising prices in services and goods.

    im expecting companies to be doing downgrades late this yr or next yr due to inflation and less consumer spending.
    commodity companies should do alright this yr

    one step ahead of the herd

    I think we would have bigger issues if the nuclear plant did blow up. It would for sure be WW III

    The Russian military has shown it's incompetence on multiple fronts.

    It should simply stop before the whole world knows about their lack of skill and capability.

    If stocks fall due to the threat of nuclear war, BUY THE DIPS.

    If nuclear war doesn't happen, you will make some serious money.

    If nuclear war happens, you won't need the money anyway.

    Stay safe & stay sane - you cannot influence the outcome but you can control your emotions & stay calm.

    Too late.

    Unfortunately - even a dumb Russian nuke kills clever people.

    Russian stops exporting fertilizer? Well, to be fair - the Russian dictator tries to compensate ... so much manure coming out of his mouth.

    European markets down 7% this week. Dow down for the fourth straight week.
    This morning on CNBC they were talking about gas prices for parts of Europe that would cripple many consumers and business's. Prices that if converted into the price of petrol, (which is something we can more easily understand), are the same as US $30 a gallon. That's $US 8 a liter = $N.Z 11.76 a liter. By the time the Govt added GST and all the other taxes on here imagine paying $15 a liter for petrol !
