Trump’s Trade War vs NZ Property – Are Kiwi Households the Real Collateral?


Listen Later

Donald Trump’s trade war is heating up again — and Kiwis are already feeling the burn.
While the media focuses on US-China tensions, the reality is that New Zealand households are becoming collateral damage in a global economic conflict. Tariffs, disrupted trade routes, and rising import costs are starting to hit where it hurts: mortgage affordability, property market confidence, and KiwiSaver balances.

In this video, we expose how international trade warfare is now driving local financial pain — and why most Kiwis aren’t ready for what’s coming. From groceries to construction materials, from inflation to mortgage rates, this is the real story behind the headlines.

🧠 What You’ll Learn in This Video:
How Trump’s tariff strategy affects global supply chains — and why NZ isn’t insulated

The ripple effects on interest rates, import costs, and household budgets

How KiwiSaver funds are quietly vulnerable to global volatility

Why the NZ property market could slow as global pressure mounts

What to expect next in the housing cycle — and how to prepare for financial pressure

Strategic moves for mortgage holders, investors, and first-home buyers in 2025

💥 This isn’t political theatre. This is economic reality.
You don’t need to live in the US to be impacted by American policy.
When the world’s biggest economy makes a move, small nations like New Zealand feel the aftershocks first — especially in the form of higher prices, slower growth, and tightening financial stress on Kiwi families.

If you’ve got a mortgage, a KiwiSaver account, or a stake in the housing market, this is essential viewing.

📉 Tariffs are rising. So are food prices. So is risk.
📊 And New Zealanders are caught in the crossfire — without even realizing it.
