The 2026 investor’s survival guide: Part 2

Could the upcoming election mess with our economic recovery? Mark Lister reckons you should focus on "profits over politics" regardless of who wins. We’re joined by Mark, Director at Craigs Investment Partners, and Kiwibank Chief Economist Jarrod Kerr to break down what Kiwi investors can look for in 2026.

Find out how mortgage rates hitting 4% could finally wake up the property market and lure back investors. Jarrod questions whether the risk management departments in banks may have actually intensified our recession, and whether the power of the US dollar is changing. 

Plus, why Mark says the Kiwi share market is traditionally the "high income" choice compared to the US, and how to tell if you’re ready for the volatility of crypto.
