Keen for a qualified opinion from an economist who isn't an employee of one of the main NZ banks. I am! I think it's critical to understand the REAL impact of the oil shock coming our way to NZ, and how the RBNZ may be forced to respond. Inflation, recession, perhaps a bit of both, or something completely different?

You down with USD? Yeah you know me. Well, clearly not. My long term thesis is that this dies a death. Until this occurs however, USD denominated stablecoins will create demand for US Treasuries. This will cause interest rates to drop for any USD debt-based system. For everyday investor, this means property values go up. For a time, USD-denominated stablecoins will lower the cost of money for any nation who adopts it. The US could rule the world. Unless...of course...2026 sees the rise of the non-USD stablecoin.Special thanks to Ryan Johnson-Hunt from New Money.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.

This April, the government's increasing the minimum contributions by 0.5% for employees and 0.5% for employer contributions. Too little, too late? Step in the right direction?Personally I think when the government intervenes, it may already be too late.

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.

Will a higher OCR crash New Zealand property, or is that just what we need? In this episode we’ll unpack why bank economists are suddenly keen on future hikes, how that lines up with record profits and rising net interest margins, and what it all means for house prices, mortgage refixes, and already‑stretched Kiwi households. I’ll finish with how I’m setting my own mortgage terms right now – including a big 5‑year fix rolling off – so you’ve got a real‑world example to compare your own strategy against.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.

Will gold, or bitcoin, come out on top in a monetary reset?Given the volatility in precious metals, bitcoin, and AI stocks last week, it's a timely reminder...All investments come with the chance of the price going down instead of up, and if you feel fear when markets wobble, just remember the possibility it might not be what your investing in that’s the problem. The best time to change your portfolio is not when you’re spiraling and wondering if you were wrong, but when it’s clear you were right.The best investments always wobble, the best investors, shouldn’t.
