    NZX50 Capital index (not gross with dividends reinvested) is the index to compare against other markets, is up around 45% since the peak in 2007. Anyone have information on earnings then or even P/E. Wondering if the 45% rise is mainly just due to elevated P/E?

    I agree 100% we are being fleeced. Do you think its the fuel companies (the only one we have complete data on is ZEL who after all costs net's 3-4 cents per liter)...or could it be the Govt who tax us about $1 per liter all up including GST. Which do you think is the more plausible possibility based on those numbers...

    So everyone says that the Govt should spend some money on infrastructure to seed the economy while money is cheap and when they do that it is labelled.

    It is both. Govt tax is too high in my opinion, but having said that, both Labour and National have been guilty of this.

    What bugs the hell out of me is the variation in fuel prices from location to location. Why should I pay 20c/litre more in Timaru, than someone in Christchurch? it’s bull**** and it’s the fuel companies controlling that.

    Correct Dobby...she just couldn't win on this one. No spending on infrastructure and people from Reserve Bank down get stuck into them. And if she spends she faces the wrath of the Beagle's.

    LOL..slow day on the market eh, doubt she can hear the barking. Good on her with some spending on infrastructure even if the timing is quite a "coincidence". I think its clear to all intelligent people who's really "fleecing" us on fuel costs.

    lets hope its really is transformational to take advantage of low interest rates.

    heres a good story piece on what politicians normally do

    Asia's long-term planning is paying off; New Zealand must learn from it


    OPINION: As much as I love New Zealand, I have often felt exasperated that it is the most short-term country I have lived in, and I have lived in a few

    2. Final auckland port review is considered by cabinet in december

    3.The Reserve Bank will release the final decisions in its biggest ever review of banks' regulatory capital requirements on Thursday, December 5

    https://www.interest.co.nz/banking/1...nks-regulatory

    review of key announcements

    govt announced 12billion infrastructure spend , but gave no idea on what or when lol so will have no impact at all on economy next year. might in the future if any of it actually gets done.
    RBNZ capital released and increased limits on banks. so will add marginally to growth slowdown in future not next year i reckon.
    Port review announced and other than words nothing really announced except more reviews

    So of all the big announcements in december the only one that achieved an outcome was the RBNZ the govt involved ones seem to follow the trend of words but nothing more.
