    bond yields fall world wide following dragi comments

    https://www.cnbc.com/2019/03/07/ecbs...forecasts.html

    even in nz bonds falling , swap rates near all time lows = lower mortgage rates unless banks decide to rort it ( probably already are lol ) lower term deposits coming.

    the dow jones utilities is very close to hitting an all time high same most countries. it shows low growth environment investors are chasing income as interest rates may go even lower still world wide

    Have to or else NZD/AUD will got to parity or even higher if RBA drops to 1% and we stay @ 1.75%

    Will hurt NZ as AUS are biggest services trading partner would think inflation in costs for kiwis

    And many exporters 14.5billion in trade to AUD will be a right kick in the guts ..

    The alarm bells just keep coming!

    Best bull market since 1987! Low unemployment they say!

    Yet December we saw China pump the markets with Trillions of dollars, ECB just announced last week that they are back to QE.. they are still at 0% interest rates?! The Fed have announced no more QT and we are back to wait and see mode instead of hikes this year!

    Huge number of store closures announced in the US for a lot of the major retailers.

    Auto loans are in arrears for close to 8 million in the US.

    Suncorp (AUS bank) just announced they some investors may not get their full funds back on a mortgage security.

    China output down by 20%

    Property markets in US,Canada,Australia starting a long decline. With in inventory raising in NZ.. last month 10000 properties for sale in Auckland.. same month last year 4000 for sale.. downturn coming here also.

    Sounding like a meltdown is close.. September or October are the months to be in cash positions.

    If you don't believe me feel free to google search all this!

    Financial markets have fully priced in the likelihood the RBA will cut its cash rate by September and a 50 percent chance of another cut by the end of the year.
    The market has priced in a 70 percent chance of an official cash rate cut in New Zealand within the next 12 months.

    that economist forgets to mention the nzd/aud forex rate would probably go over 1 to 1 if interest rates in nz become more attractive than aus. this would cause further contraction in nz gdp as exporters slowly become uncompetitive across the ditch and lay off staff in nz and cut costs etc to remain in the game. also he is placing all his eggs on the nz housing market/ construction staying strong. but as we already see developers are going bust all over the place so there wont be enough of them left soon to maintain the big construction end of the market there this part of construction will decline

    Agreed!!

    I think a lot of people forget that the Central Bank interest rate is not specifically for Housing. Tho Low interest rates continue, they are actually a byproduct of Central Banks around the world trying to protect businesses/Economy from a collapse. This was done by lowering their funding costs. Allowing more time to pay back debt.

    One of the other functions of Interest rates is to control imports/export of a given country.. Higher the dollar is in a country, the more people tend to import. But usually drops the demands for their products.. The lower the rate is, the more countries export, but obviously people stop importing as much due to costs.

    This control is done via the dollar/exchange rate. Which can be influenced via interest rates. But by increasing/decreasing interest rates you are able to keep the country competitive in the global market place.

    Now lets take the extreme example of the AUD dropping to 1AUD to 2NZD.. (New Zealand exports a lot to Australia. They are one of our major trading partners)

    Central bank will need to react.Their mandate is stability, and need to maintain the order of things so to speak.Hence will cut the interest rate to keep the country competitive.. that is why the whole world cut interest rates when the Fed did.. to maintain competitive advantages in the market place. Without such actions the local Economy would suffer.
