Research, Research, Research…

Using data provided by Asbestos Awareness Australia we examine the dynamics of research economics, and highlight how politics and profit distorts investment and thus medical progress. If a particular disease is presented as “an old man’s disease”, a “working class disease”, funding is less likely to be provided. Plus the industry has a track record of financing “experts” if they tow the right lines. Full report is below.

Are Bank Deposits Safer In Australia Or New Zealand?

I am joined by Robbie Barwick from The Citizens Party as we discuss the latest Deposit Bail-In issues, prompted by a New Zealand Government paper which proposes to change the current “Open Banking Resolution” Bail-In approach.

We explore the underlying drivers of this approach, and alternatives which provide a better solution.

Quantitative Easing – A Dangerous Addiction?

We discuss the House of Lords Report on the Bank of England’s Quantitative Easing Programme. They ask the critical question – just how will it be unwound? Has the Bank of England created greater inequality through the programme – and just how independent is the Bank and its relationship with HM Treasury.

Great questions which should be asked of all Central Banks, including RBA here.

Two Australias: 16th July 2021

In today’s post we look at the latest construction data, examine the “two camps” in the real estate market, who might get mortgage relief during the lock-downs as Victoria joins the party, revisit the New Zealand situation with forecasts of home price falls in the light of the latest CPI, and finally look at the upcoming US Debt Ceiling and how that may play out, and in to the broader questions about inflation.This post is supported by Ribbon Property Consultants.

The Deflation Factor: The DFA Daily 15th July 2021

The latest edition of our finance and property news digest with a distinctively Australian flavour.

In today’s show we explain why deflation not inflation is still highly likely – and caused by the RBA, why Australian Home prices could stagnate for a decade, how the ATO is clawing back scammed support payments and the low-down on rental relief as NSW wrestles with the virus. And Why The FED might inflate home prices in the USA just like the Central banks in Australia and New Zealand have done.
