At the end of each week, Mike Hosking takes you through the big-ticket items and lets you know what he makes of it all.
Tourism: 7/10
This has been a good vibe week. TRENZ had them coming from everywhere, the sentiment is good, and the numbers are excellent.
Kiwifruit: 9/10
This story is starting to outshine dairy. Not in numbers, but in terms of growth. At almost $6 billion and booming, this is mana from vines. Add it to dairy and we are laughing.
Chris Hipkins: 2/10
This has been, far and away, his worst week of the year. Mystery policy detail and the arrogance to say we aren't interested in detail anyway. He is National's election year dream come true.
Trump: 4/10
We still don’t have a deal, but we do have a slush fund. He looks increasingly tawdry. But he's just as influential – just ask Thomas Massie.
Newstalk ZB: 8/10
Guess who’s popular? Ratings day yesterday was party day – the audience is up, and on some shows, up a lot. We thank you and appreciate you, as always, from the bottom of our hearts.
