first off both major parties are making noises like they are expecting a Federal Election , MAYBE even before Xmas ( NORMALLY the RBA avoids appearing to help any particular election campaign )

the second factor is Tuesday is Melbourne Cup Day when NORMALLY 2.30 pm is the time people care about is the RBA the least ( but it MIGHT be different this time )

now somebody like me would HIKE ( up 0.5% ) the rates on Tuesday to SHOCK the economy ( into retiring debt , and better deployment of cash reserves for those that have some ) , catch them completely off guard and then CONSIDER a 0.25% rise in February ,

but you have a better chance that Australia would go back to the gold standard , than 'somebody like me ' getting into the RBA building ever again

unless the faceless men suspect BOTH parties look toxic to voters , i suspect all you will see is a choreographed drama ( at least until after the next election )

so is it different , this time ??
