Milford says NZX 50 gross returns average over 6% in six months after 2005–2023 elections
  • Milford Asset Management's November 9, 2026 analysis urged investors to avoid changing long-term investment plans solely because of election results.
  • The NZX 50 posted positive gross returns over six months following all seven general elections from 2005 to 2023, averaging just over 6%.
  • The small sample offers little predictive value; global economic conditions often matter more than election outcomes.
  • Changes in personal goals, investment timeframes or risk tolerance provide stronger reasons to review portfolios than political headlines.
