New Zealand's unemployment rate is expected to hold steady, at least on paper, when new data is released this week. But beneath that headline number, economists are warning the labour market may already be weakening just as global tensions and an oil shock begin to bite. There are also growing concerns about something called stagflation, where higher unemployment and rising inflation collide. And what that could mean for households and the wider economy.
