Consumers relatively upbeat in latest confidence index

Low interest rates and a stronger housing market are keeping consumers relatively buoyant. The ANZ-Roy Morgan Consumer Confidence Index was unchanged at 123 in January, sitting around its best level in more than a year. Consumers were slightly less optimistic about their current position but are slightly more upbeat about the longer term, and more think it's a good time to buy a big-ticket item. "New Zealand consumers are feeling pretty alright about things at the moment - the labour market remains tight, interest rates are low and the housing market is lifting again," ANZ's chief economist Sharon Zollner said. She said the lift in the housing market was likely behind the rise in those thinking its a good time to buy a major household item, which in turn would support the retail sector.

Minamino poised for first league start – Predicting the Liverpool lineup vs. Southampton

Jurgen Klopp should make at least one change as Liverpool take on Southampton, with the absence of Sadio Mane still the key area of focus.

Making their 24 from 25 will be the objective at Anfield, and the numbers available to Klopp are increasing by the game as those recovering from injury slowly return. This gives the manager plenty of scope for change, though few should be expected this weekend.
