Still "100% certain" that rates will go up next month?Rates are only going one direction, and that is UP. Inflation is a problem globally, and most central banks are raising rates (even in areas that are economically messed up).

Still "100% certain" that rates will go up next month?
Australia's money market is pricing in almost 160 basis points of cuts to the official 4.75 per cent cash rate in the next 12 months.
Either way, property is heading for a correction, so it really does not matter either way. The bigger call was the 30% correction of Australia property.
I said rates would go up, unless there was another GFC (check the posts back 2mths). A lot of Somersofters were scoffing at the idea of GFC2 (D&G they said,). Well guys, who was right.
You guys are cheering the interest rates drop on like it's a good thing. If the RBA need to move 0.5%, then it means that global economic conditions are stuffed. Government stimulus spending won't hold up the property market this time like during GFC1.
This is GFC levels. 30% property market correction, here we come.
Yeah, yeah property down 30%, just like 2008/09
CBA, which faces stiff competition from local rivals such as National Australia Bank , said its new fixed rates for loans from one to 5 years would now range from 6.59 percent to 6.99 percent, the lowest of any of the four big local banks

I now call a 100% chance of a 0.25% rate rise in September. I also suspect that with higher than expected CPI figures in the Sept quarter, that rates will head up a second time in Dec or Feb.
Inflation is becoming a problem, and the RBA won't hold indefinately. And certainly won't lower interest rates as some on here suggest.
I never said 2008. Always said 2012. Your mistaking me with Keen.
No you didn't. You are re-writing history AGAIN. Here is your actuial quote from a week ago. You lose all credibility when you are 100% certain of something happening a week ago, yet now you are backing away from your own statement at 100 miles an hour.
So core inflation is starting to head up to the higher end of the RBA's 2-3% range, and headline inflation is already at 3.6%.
I suspect the the Sept CPI number will show even the core inflation close to 3%.
All things point to a rate rise. I think they will move up 0.25% in September.
The only way the rates will fall is if the world implodes again and we head into GFC2 and we need more emergency rate falls.
And really, I don't think you want to cheer interest rates down from a low 4.75%, as it means that the economy is in trouble, and this time property will be hit hard.
So you are expecting the Government to step in with tens of billions of stimulus like the did in 2008 if GFC II hits?
Do I really care what happens to interest rates with a 24% LVR, NO.

Do you know...this comment would be funny...if it wasn't so true.
Would not suprise me one bit.

Then why bother giving us a worthless prediction every 5 minutes??? Geez...
....It's a property forum, so as I'm staying out of more property until late 2013/ early 2014 (after the correction), so no point in being here. Concentrate on the ASX (so I'll go find some share trading forum). Cheers, been fun.

Anyway, see you guys, It's a property forum, so as I'm staying out of more property until late 2013/ early 2014 (after the correction), so no point in being here. Concentrate on the ASX (so I'll go find some share trading forum).

It will lead to high inflation though which will help pay off my debt, sure interest rates will rise but so will my wages, so I dont see it as all bad.
