I'd be weary of Bloomberg economist, some of them can't or won't read a standard company financial statement, and usually prefer to print what gets the most click's.
Chook is right, there's plenty of good buying at the moment, but unless everybody is going to get laid off, or can't pay...

A lot of it is to do with the economy, when there's plenty of easy money being splashed around people feel rich and there's a lot more foot traffic in the big cities.
When there's less liquidity, the masses hunker down at home to fight inflation, this simply highlights the undesirables...

New Zealand was the first advanced economy to start raising interest rates, we were the first economy to contract as a cause, the U.S and other advanced economies will likely follow suit as they begin to raise interest rates aggressively.
I believe New Zealand may already be in a recession....

Fed raised OCR .75bp
NZ economy shrank 0.2% last quarter,as the RBNZ continues to increase interest rates a recession is all but guaranteed.
1 more negative quarter equals a recession, 3 negative quarters equals the beginning of a depression.

I don't know if you read Tony Alexander, but even he has mentioned he is unsure what will happen to house prices after 2030.
He's a well respected economist, I'm an amateur economist, I can say what he can't.
The big fail as you quoted is basically a reset of the financial system,...Last edited by Jeffa; 13-06-2022, 11:24 PM.

Long/medium term:
Should hyper inflation occur, What I plan to do before the end of the decade, which is only 7.5 years away is to be debt free .

^^Interesting theory from Prebble.
Richard Prebble writing in the NZ herald pondered
that Labour will be trying to find a way to create an electoral crisis in order to call a snap election. Could Jacinda Ardern’s pending cabinet reshuffle deliver that crisis?
By October...Last edited by Jeffa; 13-06-2022, 03:18 PM.

As interest rates rise the housing market and economy declines or crashes
Sooner or later central government is going to lean on the RBNZ for increasing interest rates and say..

I have some in the money put options, and have some short positions to help hedge my portfolio ,I'm still going long on my favourite companies and sometimes been adding long term call options when they become available, less risk.
My commodities pay well so everyone is different I guess....Last edited by Jeffa; 11-06-2022, 05:33 PM.

This down market could possibly be the last chance for the middle class to stay in the middle class, I think once this inflation sets in there's going to be a massive disparity in wealth equality from this year onwards,
There is still time for those that are brave enough or who can access...

U.S 10y closed at 3.15% today,
Equity and Bond investors are expecting the Fed to pivot if it reaches about 3.2 to 3.3% ish.

Unless you invested in cashflow assets that can stay ahead of inflation like rental properties (rents up on average 11.2%) oil and other commodities, your real income and savings is likely negative.
Which is why hoarding cash is and will always be trash.Last edited by Jeffa; 11-06-2022, 02:22 PM.

At this point, many Kiwis...
