Breakfast briefing: Goldilocks end to inflation's threat
Good prices went down -1.4% in the month, the first decrease since May mainly due to a -15% drop in petrol prices.

But the NZ Government 10 year bond rate is down -17 bps for yesterday's catch-up, now at 5.09%. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at just on at 69.6, and a net +40 bps higher.

Incoming coalition Government sorting out finer details, says NZ Herald reporter
Winston Peters is expected to emerge from a meeting with National soon, as Government-forming talks continue. NZ Herald political reporter Adam Pearse is outside the Cordis Hotel in Auckland, and says Peters has been with National's leader Chris Luxon for more than two hours. He says the meetings are getting longer, which could mean they are getting into the detail. "The latest we've heard is that there are still policy differences that they have yet to iron out. And I would imagine if you were spending over two hours discussing in a hotel room, ministerial positions are not the only things you're talking about."

Why Act’s Treaty referendum is disrespectful and arrogant
Opinion: David Seymour has been citing my work to imply that I support Act’s attempts to rewrite Te Tiriti o Waitangi. When Te Tiriti was debated and signed in Waitangi and elsewhere, it was debated and signed in te reo. In order to understand the promises that the rangatira and Queen Victoria exchanged, it is the text in te reo, Te Tiriti o Waitangi, that is the most authoritative record. Most lawyers, politicians, scholars and citizens have to rely on the English text, the Treaty of Waitangi, and/or translations of Te Tiriti into English. ACT’s proposed approach to Te Tiriti will do the opposite.

Fourth and final ETS auction to leave a billion-dollar hole for incoming Government, warns expert
The incoming Government is expected to contend with a billion-dollar hole in its books created by the upcoming ETS auction. The final auction of units under the Emissions Trading Scheme for 2023 isn't expected to clear on December 6. Most participants in the carbon market expect this auction to fail, on the grounds that a full year's worth of units will need to be sold.
