Gee, I would love to live in their stratosphere world.Minutes from the RBA’s July meeting reveals while the board agreed “some further tightening of monetary policy may be required” in the months ahead to bring inflation under control, more data on inflation and the economy was needed to ensure the central bank didn’t go too far.
The board concluded that the full effect of 12 rate hikes since last May had yet to be felt by Australians and there was a risk output growth could slow by “more than expected”, triggering a potentially catastrophic set of events.
The RBA board also said "mortgage payments had already increased to a “historical peak” of 9.4% of household income."
P.S. Reckon it's more like 30%+ or higher of household income on mortgage & rent imo

Compared to a year earlier though, which was less than half the price of the COVID peak just before the global tightening cycle began.View attachment 159741
Kind of shocked it's only 1% tbh.
It might be a "climbing the wall of worry" scenario.Time to look for longer term bargains.
More doom and gloom than optimism
The worm is turning the pendulum is about to pull up and turn the other way.
Inflation is pulling up
China has pulled up
Look carefully for future companies that will benefit long term.

That article isn't so accurate, oil is tending upwards, Saudi has annouched it will reduce oil production and Russia reduced exports and planning on using it for their local domestic market. As for the Australian fuel price look at the chart below and not to mention how high residential rent is Australia also.Has been my thinking for a few weeks now, thus entries on BOQ and KSL a few weeks ago.
A very different kind of pace for me.
ABC on que
Even a week ago we couldn't have predicted this, but things are looking up for the economy
After good news from the US, the Reserve Bank of Australia now has a chance to cement low unemployment while controlling inflation – without more rate rises, writes Peter Martin.www.abc.net.au
One thing we don't have worry about, water rates. Though some tanks were here when we bought the joint, I have installed a couple more. but still way in front though.Hah, I've got my water licence coming up later this year. I am lubing up in anticipation ?
Yep, growth futures now deep into the red.Earnings for TSLA, NFLX and IBM out. Latter two disappoint with poor outlook. TSLA reports likely reduced production in next quarter with narrower margins.
is this the turning point?Yep, growth futures now deep into the red.
Meanwhile, looks like things might be about to get ugly in the black sea.
I've been offered a lot of money for my water licence, it's an investment in a way.One thing we don't have worry about, water rates. Though some tanks were here when we bought the joint, I have installed a couple more. but still way in front though.
Misunderstood Thought you meant scheme water bill.I've been offered a lot of money for my water licence, it's an investment in a way.
BOIL now well & truly on the move too. I've added a small topup.is this the turning point?
Crude up 10% compared to last month. Wheat futures up almost 10%.
Core CPI has remained flat but surely headline CPI will print higher if food and energy continue up. Central bankers will have to keep hiking given the narrative of IR hikes combating inflation.
Meanwhile company profits and outlook drops off. New job ads have already started to fall...
Hiking into a recession?
