BusinessDesk and the NZ Herald’s Cooking the Books podcast tackle a different money problem each week. Today, it’s the investments that can do even better in a downturn. Hosted by Frances Cook.


It’s no secret that I’m a fan of investing through a recession, as it can be a way to snap up bargains and build wealth for the future. 

But what if you’re looking for something a little more immediate? Good investments that keep doing well, even when the economy is down? 

The current recession is the perfect test because some industries are going better than ever. 

I talked to Milford Asset Management portfolio manager Sam Trethewey for the latest podcast.
