  • RBA warnings clear

    in Car Finance

    When RBA governor Glenn Stevens speaks, everyone takes notice. And in his latest speech he outlined the predictable scenario of a house price bubble created by continued cheap credit and not enough new dwellings. He said the best solution would be to build many more new dwellings. (The exchange rate of the Australian dollar shot up on the back of his comments. And Macquarie Bank then accused the RBA of “marketing” interest rate rises.)

     

  • Economic recovery – side effects

    in Car Finance

    Unfortunately when economies begin to pick up speed the news is accompanied by inevitable problems. And in six months of recovery the unwelcome side means:

     

    • Unemployment – Jobless rate continues to climb with the latest predictions now forecasting over 6 percent by the end of this year.
    • Inflation Up – Inflation is definitely back on the up and the Melbourne Institute (M.I.) has identified a monthly rate approaching one percent.
    • Oil up too much – One of the main pushers of inflation is the increase in oil price which is taking off again.
