💼 New Zealand Business Forecast – November 2025

As November begins, New Zealand’s economy stands at a turning point. After several slow quarters, the latest rate cut from the Reserve Bank (down to 2.5%) is expected to revive investment and spending. Businesses are beginning to regain confidence — cautiously, but steadily.

🏡 The housing market has leveled off, offering a fairer balance between buyers and sellers.
📈 Lending restrictions are easing from December, opening doors for small business growth and new property investments.
🌍 Meanwhile, global uncertainty and weaker export demand remain key challenges for the months ahead.

Overall, the tone is one of careful optimism. Lower borrowing costs and stable prices may help drive a stronger start to 2026 — but smart planning and flexibility will be essential.

Now’s the time to look for opportunities, manage risks wisely, and prepare for the next growth wave. 🚀

Destrucción, tristeza, incertidumbre y miles de cosas más. Hoy necesito desconectar, después de perder mi hogar y no saber si podré volver a trabajar necesito ver el mar y olvidarme de este volcán que nos ha roto la vida a muchos. Quiero volver a mi pizzeria Evangelina, ver a mis clientes, amigos y demás. Pero no sé cuando podrá ser posible y si lograremos aguantar hasta que lo sea. Mucho ánimo a todas esas familias que como yo han perdido hogar, trabajo y un sin fin de cosas. Fuerza y esperanza a tod@s!!

⁠
Prep time: 1 hour⁠
Makes: 1 pizza⁠
⁠
INGREDIENTS:⁠
For the dough:⁠
300g flour⁠
3g sugar⁠
3g salt⁠
3g dried yeast⁠
180ml water ⁠
⁠
For the sauce:⁠
150g tomato sauce ⁠
2 Tbsp garlic powder⁠
2 Tbsp dried oregano⁠
1 tsp pepper⁠
1 tsp salt ⁠
1 Tbsp olive oil ⁠
⁠
For the topping:⁠
1 pack Violife Mozzarella Flavour Slices (or another vegan mozzarella)⁠
50g olives ⁠
50g capers ⁠
Fresh basil, to garnish⁠
1 ghost-shaped cutter / cut carefully using a knife⁠
⁠
METHOD:⁠
Preheat the oven to 200°C. ⁠
To make the pizza dough, add all ingredients to a mixing bowl. Use your hands or a mixer to form a dough. When the dough is ready, form a ball and wrap in cling film and set aside in a warm and dry place. ⁠
Meanwhile make the tomato marinara sauce by blending all ingredients together in a blender until combined. ⁠
Use your cookie cutter, or carefully use a knife, to cut out ghost shapes from the Violife slices. ⁠
Once the dough has doubled in size, roll out into a circle of 30cm. Place in the oven on a lined baking tray for 7-10 minutes. Remove from the oven and use a spoon to add the marinara sauce to the base. ⁠
Top with your Violife ghosts, using olive slices and capers to give them eyes and bake for a further 5-6 minutes. When the pizza is ready garnish with basil leaves and serve!⁠

E' Natale, regali e doni... vorrei tanto essere come la Grecia dove già da sei mesi la macellazione equina è vietata, una grandiosa conquista in un percorso è ancora lungo, in particolare in Italia dove è necessario educare e consapevolizzare per dissolvere tabù e barbarie. Aiuta il Partito Vegano a nascere e crescere.

Pubblicato sulla Gazzetta ufficiale greca un emendamento con cui i cavalli vengono equiparati anche per legge a cani e gatti. Nel Paese il cavallo non si mangia per cultura e già non esistevano mattatoi per equini
