The RBA is set to release its February monetary policy decision on February 18. The market now sees a 90% chance of a 25 basis point rate cut, which would bring the cash rate down from 4.35% to 4.10%. If the RBA cuts rates in February, it would mark the first rate cut since the cash rate was raised to 4.35% in November 2023, and the first in over four years, signaling Australia's official entry into a rate-cutting cycle. RBA rate cu...
Australian Real Estate Investment Trusts (A-REITs) offer investors a way to engage in the commercial real estate market without directly holding physical property. These A-REITs own, operate, or finance a range of real estate sectors, generating income as a result. Is it the right time to invest in A-REITs amidst US Federal Reserve rate cuts?

There is only 1 way the RBA will cut rates in 2025, and that's if the corrupt Albanese government legislated away their independence and stacks the RBA board with union organisers. (this is their current plan to reduce interest rates, since they refuse to cut government spending to lower inflation). The disconnection of interest rates from inflation to trick voters into giving this lunatic another term in office, combined with the absurd spending on "renewables" and "infrastructure" all of which is 100% inflationary (since neither generate any revenue) guarantees that REITs as well as any other deflationary asset (like gold, or Bitcoin) will skyrocket. Since the underlying cause will be hyperinflation in the AUD, holding literally anything that is not denominated in AUD, like US dollars or stocks will also "skyrocket" if viewed through the lens of Australian Dollars. This might sound like a way to get rich while everyone else gets poorer, but it doesn't work like that in Australia. Here, we believe in Survival of the Weakest. A form of anti-evolution. FACT: the average NDIS participant receives "benefits" equivalent to nearly double the average workforce participant's before-tax income. Who's better off working? Not many. DM me for advice on SMSFs and offshore holdings, to limit your exposure to the "Robbin Hood" taxation scheme that's coming out way.
