Robert MacCulloch: Auckland University Macroeconomics Professor on the supposed soft-landing for the economy
A macroeconomics professor is hitting back at a forecast our economy is on track for a soft-landing.
Infometrics has revised its expectations for next year up to 0.9% growth, saying strong migration figures are having an effect.
Auckland University Professor Robert MacCulloch told Tim Dower that the report is silly.
He questions how they could come out with a line like that when next year the International Monetary Fund ranks our GDP growth at 180 out of 189 countries in the world.
