Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Well, well, well, look, who's feeling good on a Monday morning.
- 0:03Speaker 1: We are little old New Zealand. Did we just beat
- 0:05Speaker 1: the spring Box at Alice Park? Yes, we did five
- 0:08Speaker 1: tries to one at altitude, our first win in South
- 0:11Speaker 1: Africa in four years, thank you very much. And that
- 0:13Speaker 1: is just for starters. The Black Ferns, in case you
- 0:15Speaker 1: missed it, rolled the Aussies sixty six nineteen. If you
- 0:19Speaker 1: thought the All Blacks six tries were impressive, how about
- 0:22Speaker 1: ten from the girls. Add to this the fact that
- 0:24Speaker 1: Liam Lawson is now driving a big boy car again
- 0:27Speaker 1: and the fact it's definitely the Warriors year again, and
- 0:30Speaker 1: you got yourself the ingredients of something special, an overwhelming
- 0:34Speaker 1: feeling of good vibes for a country that's been through
- 0:36Speaker 1: a rough patch. Why stop there. We spoke about this
- 0:40Speaker 1: last week, but let's just remind ourselves again of the
- 0:42Speaker 1: SMP's latest growth Outlook. Why not upgraded us? Thank you
- 0:45Speaker 1: very much. Half a percent they reckon in twenty six,
- 0:48Speaker 1: we'll hit two point four in twenty seven, two point
- 0:51Speaker 1: five percent tick tick tick. This is in part because
- 0:56Speaker 1: we're feeling more confident about our future. Domestic confidence is
- 0:59Speaker 1: on the right And as for the Aussies. You don't
- 1:02Speaker 1: like to laugh at misfortune, but our economy is going
- 1:04Speaker 1: to grow faster than theirs. The smart key Wes who
- 1:07Speaker 1: bug it off to Sydney will surely return to our shores. No,
- 1:10Speaker 1: the housing downturn theirs looks like the start of what
- 1:14Speaker 1: we've just been through. The fact that we're predicted to
- 1:17Speaker 1: grow and not off the back of a house price
- 1:19Speaker 1: boom really is something else. And I know what you're thinking.
- 1:23Speaker 1: You're thinking that I shouldn't jinx any of this where
- 1:26Speaker 1: a failed box checker, an F one penalty, or a
- 1:29Speaker 1: tariff war or real war away from collapse, misery and disaster.
- 1:34Speaker 1: That may well be true, But why not take the
- 1:37Speaker 1: winds where we get them and celebrate. Winter is over,
- 1:40Speaker 1: nearly spring is about to spring, the sun is rising,
- 1:44Speaker 1: the tide is turning, etc. Etc. Let's just enjoy Monday.
