Our November newsletter serves up a diverse selection of articles as we hurtle towards the end of 2020 (whew!). First up, Brad Olsen examines internal migration in New Zealand, with his analysis confirming that cities are losing people to the regions. Nick Brunsdon dovetails with this population discussion by diving into the wider migration trends evident across New Zealand.
Alistair Schorn scans the current trade environment and the importance of exports to the economic outlook, following on from our client webinar on global activity and trade (webinar recordings are available on our website).
Our September Quarterly Economic Monitor showed a strong rebound in economic activity across the regions, and Brad’s press release provides the highlights.
Infometrics Chief Forecaster Gareth Kiernan examines current regional building activity, drawing out some key trends that are emerging.
And finally, Brad revisits one of the more unusual data sources Infometrics has reported on – New Zealand’s dogs, and details where the pooch population is growing, in our Chart of the Month for November.
