As another RBA meeting approaches, the predictions are flying and clickbait healines are clickbaiting.
What we do know is some major banks (CBA and ANZ) believe there will be no change to interest rates because of combination of rising unemployment and slowing economic growth.
So what's the RBA watching to make their decision?
• Inflation and whether it continues to ease.
• Employment levels and signs of a slowing economy.
• Household spending and consumer confidence.
• Global events, including oil prices and overseas economic pressures.
The challenge for the RBA is balancing inflation without pushing the economy into a deeper slowdown.
The reality is nobody knows exactly what will happen next. But we've been in the mortgage broking industry around 30 years - we've seen it all!
That's why we focus on what we can control:
✔ Reviewing your loan regularly
✔ Ensuring your loan structure still suits your goals
✔ Having a strategy regardless of whether rates go up, down, or stay the same
