Monthly figure though. The quarterly in late July will be far more accurate and will be the figure that will decide if interest rates need to rise again.
Yet so many builders collapse? so maybe more than the private sector profit margins, it could be the leeching of state and councils fees, reports and layers and layers of extra costs which actually sink even goverment programs..I guess it's a case of perceived flaws with productivity, Vs loss in output due to private sector profit margins.
Yes if people are finding it stressful ATM, during a recession unemployment of 10% isn't uncommon and applying for a job alongside of 100's of others after it, isn't fun.
I think that’s a common problem across the economy.
have a good long talk to an old builder ( i have to several )
They need a certain amount of churn, as they only get payments at milestones, the big problem is when they get hit with a materials or labor cost increase mid churn. It adds to the ones at the beginning of the building process all the way through, so really it is a ponzi.

They'll hold.
not an accident
It was a quick newsreel on the latest inflation going up, don't know why they put it on private. I haven't looked at all the latest economic figures but I predicted at the beginning of the year that you won't see an interest decline until next year sometime. Now it looks like another hike is coming in the near future.
This is what the graduate jobs market has felt like for ~15 years.
yep , worked with dozens of graduates ( that couldn't get a better salary ) as a 'blue collar worker ' back in the last big recession ( and the one before that )
I know one that got a grad offer, was told in the induction they expected 65 hour weeks (13 hour days), did 13 hour days, got to the end of his training contract and was shown the door for "only doing the bare minimum".
0% probability of this. It would literally cause another great depression.
I posted that in another thread yesterday, then this morning I heard wharfies are going for an 18% pay rise, so one would think that would have to affect inflation.An update on the Australian cruising issue, that was posted recently.
