Doh! good pickup Herbie. Have corrected.

Still, you wont have anything to worry about when the great capital flight begins, eh? Being all paid off with your properties like.
Egads! U.S bond yields rocketing too!

With Australian-US yield spreads shrinking so quickly, what's a guy to do?
Try using this rate curve in future John, although like most futures trends it's not always correct.

In many respects, you're right. The suburbanites are effectively trapped in the world of "investment" and the property sector has geared itself well with all the political and institutional strategic and tactical moves. The world of equities is really off the radar for most and only considered through super. I'm not really sure about what % of the popn are active traders or investors, but I can't be bothered to research right now.

The only other options available are as follows:

1. Do nothing (actively discouraged by the status quo as it doesn't benefit the collective)

2. Invest in yourself (an option I only really see among younger, childless people. Many of whom end up overseas)
2 years ago a friend was about to buy a small property in Perth, I said to her, please concider the following.

Do not buy property, I am selling.

Invest into yourself, learn, she bought a brand new car, got her licence, and now has got a promotion at work and does relief work all over Perth.

She is fluent in Chinese, and has started a small export import business and is regularly exporting to China.

She just negotiated her rent down from $240 per week to $200 pw.

Her bank balance is stable now and growing again.

Plus the landlord has fitted washing machine taps to her apartment and now she can save $10 pw on laundry costs.

From little acorns....

So she now has a small business. a job upgrade, a drivers licence and a beautiful car she paid cash for.

The $50 per week she is now saving pays for her car expenses.

On the other hand I know a couple that bought at the very top of the Perth property cycle, $500,000 for a 1 bedroom apartment in East Perth.

They are both working.

This story is so sad I really do not want to write it.

So suffice to say, there are now 2 bedroom units selling for less.

They bought the narrative, bowed to peer pressure and bought at exactly the wrong time.

There is a long road of debt and pain for these people.

What has happened to them is what is so wrong with our society.

The old wise cats taking the young and dumb for a ride.

We should help not hinder.

House should always get cheaper not more expensive.
Peter

Is that the Aussie OIS curve?

Australian Property Forum is an economics and finance forum dedicated to discussion of Australian and global real estate markets and macroeconomics, including house prices, housing affordability, and the likelihood of a property crash. Is there an Australian housing bubble? Will house prices crash, boom or stagnate? Is the Australian property market a pyramid scheme or Ponzi scheme? Can house prices really rise forever? These are the questions we address on Australian Property Forum, the premier real estate site for property bears, bulls, investors, and speculators. Members may also discuss matters related to finance, modern monetary theory (MMT), debt deflation, cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin Ethereum and Ripple, property investing, landlords, tenants, debt consolidation, reverse home equity loans, the housing shortage, negative gearing, capital gains tax, land tax and macro prudential regulation.

Forum Rules: The main forum may be used to discuss property, politics, economics and finance, precious metals, crypto currency, debt management, generational divides, climate change, sustainability, alternative energy, environmental topics, human rights or social justice issues, and other topics on a case by case basis.
