    I'd suggest that as we move towards Zero the effect of a reduction in the OCR becomes weaker. I'd doubt that 0.1 would do anything

    But it is paid for by the banks. There is a levy of some small basis called by the government. At least that's my understanding of how these Deposit Insurance schemes work.

    Not that I agree with them myself, but what will be will be. I can kind of see the fact that most depositors wont have any real idea of how secure each bank is relative to another but that's something why financial literacy is a useful skill.
    For clarity, nothing I say is advice....

    Wait until the tide comes in an extra metre or two. Everyone will be out there with their electric diggers going hard out to keep up.

    The first rate cut, when the economy isn’t in a recession, leads to a stock market rally 100% of the time, according to data compiled by Fundstrat going back to 1971

    Borrowers of all kinds have been clear benefactors of this sea change, with many nations and companies locking in low rates for as long as a century. Belgium and Ireland have sold 100-year bonds, as did Austria this year at a yield of 1.171%.

    Seems everyone is locking in low rates to do stuff except NZ. Maybe a working group is needed to find out why?

    Business confidence slumps on construction sector woes


    https://www.nzherald.co.nz/business/...ectid=12254447


    fits our view of rapid down turn in the economy in the second half yr esp business intentions measure. RBNZ wont like that update i imagine and with the market expecting 90% chance of a rate cut should they not move now i imagine the reaction will be savage.

    good summary here
