Money Mail 220 - Preparing For Rate Cuts (Pt 1.)
Well, we’ve finally got some good inflation news. Inflation was 3.3% annually for the June 2024 quarter. This is the lowest it has been since June 2021. But we aren’t quite there yet. Still slightly outside the 3% target band. However, there is at least some confidence that we are heading inside it. And for a lot of people that will mean sweet, sweet interest rate cuts. The elixir we are craving to turn the economic tap back on. I don’t think that slow rate cuts (should they be slow) will be everything people think they will be because, as you’ve learned, interest rate cuts or hikes take some time to wash through the system. There is a huge lag with interest rates impacting the economy. Time for a reality check...Hey thanks for listening!
