Mark the Week: The Premier House drama is a fuss about nothing

Published: March 7, 2024, 9:46 p.m.

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.\xa0

\xa0

Donald Trump: 7/10\xa0

A Supreme Court win and a race that is essentially over. That's not a bad week.\xa0

\xa0

EV's: 3/10\xa0

The sales figures for February back up the sales figures for January, in that there weren't many of them. And they think this month will be about the same.\xa0

\xa0

Toyota: 7/10\xa0

Thanks for the honesty. They are right, there are real questions around the value of second hand EV's and it's good for people to know that.\xa0

\xa0

Premier House: 4/10\xa0

It's a fuss about nothing. It has no architectural merit, it's not a beloved national institution. It's an old house in a flash neighbourhood. So whack it on OneRoof and maximise the return.\xa0

\xa0

The haka: 2/10\xa0

One of the low points of the week. Professionals acting as amateurs in a heavily subsidised operation, where good will, professionalism and determination are required, not mad-cap politics.\xa0

\xa0

Business start-ups: 9/10\xa0

Stat of the week. Of those that started during Covid, 92% are still going.\xa0

\xa0

The Crusaders: 4/10\xa0

Hmmm. Maybe Razor was quite good.\xa0

\xa0

The Warriors: 8/10\xa0

Here we go! Has there been a season with so much talent, off the back of a fabulous 2023 and so much expectation? This is our year.\xa0
