We wish our newsletter readers and clients a happy Festive Season and relaxing summer break. We'll keep a close eye on economic developments in New Zealand and around the world over the summer, and look forward to to delivering up-to-date assessments and insights in 2024.
As is our Christmas tradition, we like to end the year with a light-hearted, economically altered Christmas Carol. Gareth Kiernan has adapted Tommie Connor's classic Christmas song “I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus” to get us into the holiday spirit.
We've also costed up the price of a Christmas feast, and examined what items are driving the cost of a pavlova to higher levels, in our final Chart of the Month.
