Why New Zealand’s Economy Feels Broken (Even When It Isn’t)⎥Ep. 2277
Episode 2277
Published 3 months ago
Description
New Zealand feels like it’s falling apart – shrinking GDP, rising unemployment, and a wave of Kiwis heading for Australia.
In this episode, Ed and Andrew ask economist Tony Alexander the big question: Is the economy actually munted, or are we just in another normal cycle?
You’ll learn:
- Why today’s downturn feels dramatic, but isn’t the worst we’ve seen
- The real reasons NZ swings harder than other economies
- When things might finally start getting better (and what will kick off the recovery)
Ed, Andrew and Tony break down what’s perception, what’s data, and why history suggests the upswing may be closer than most people think.
