More Operation Antispruik In The Illawarra!

Another outing thanks to Cookie’s research on property price falls on the portals, plus my own analysis based on DFA stress, this time looking at the falls across the Illawarra.

Whilst not statistically significant necessarily, it does reinforce the down trends. Thanks again to Cookie.

A Mega Operation Antispruik In Melbourne!

Another release in our Antispruik series, as we look at recent price reductions from the property portals. Thanks to Cookie for doing the primary research, which I have supplemented with the latest stress data from our Core Models to end of November 2022. Bottom line is, prices are STILL falling despite the spruiking from the property sector and media.

CPI At 6.9%: Numberwang Strikes Again!

A bunch of stats from the ABS , RBA and APRA. CPI was down a bit but largely due to rebaselining. The Trimmed Mean was unchanged.

Building approvals were down (again) and the latest data on lending shows an easing.

Net net, not enough to shift the RBA very far – 25 basis points next Tuesday is still most likely.
