    Just a heads-up folks. HGH have dropped their interest rate on their call account to 2.25% from 2.5%.
    They are still paying 3.45% for 9 month term deposits but for how much longer is anyone's guess ?

    Which I am hoping is good news for the share market - to continue driving demand out of deposits and into equities. a 1.5% aftertax deposit return is nothing to get excited about.

    (I wonder if we are getting close to the point where banks will charge us to look after our money)

    This is what they are doing for some time in some European countries like e.g. Switzerland. I hear it is bloody difficult to rent in these countries a bank safe ... they are all taken ;

    Bit of a mystery to me why the SP has slumped today, to $1.60 ...

    ... but a good opportunity to top up for me.
