Great points and I DID come off like a douche for that I will tone down. I agree the better short is getting in after the cuts but when cuts were discussed in Mid August we saw much lower levels on just talk. Now this could be a starting point for everything risk related up because now all major central banks are essentially in the picture but people have to figure that the Fed is going to come in before elections which I personally don't think will happen and China stimulus is put to use that sustains jobs and growth longer than 2 qtrs and not...
Nope i'm actually a macro bear on AUD for the next 3-5 years.. but the chance to sell a top hasn't come yet... its too expensive. Waiting for capitulation event followed by interest rate drop. That is my signal.

China Stimulus we don't know yet how this will be put to work.
QE3 not likely on Thursday or before the Elections
Iron ore is trading better this week but still well below levels of ease for RBA and the Rate.

HAHAHA i called and registered for this event to get a better perspective on Australia's mining side for my shorts. The lady asked what company do you represent? I said 'Short selling" lol If anyone else goes to this event let me know I will buy drinks.

I wouldn't compare Australia with Ireland when talking about housing. Australia has a chronic housing shortage and in parts it's deliberately managed to keep values growing. Also a steady population growth rate between 1-2% annually needs to be considered and immigration can always be cranked up as a tool for inducing housing demand, compared to Ireland that has suffered under a steep decline in growth and an exodus of young people since pre-GFC years.

I don't know, I've been hearing about a real estate market crash in Australia ever since I can think but as soon prices start to fall fresh capital hits the market and it picks up again.
The whole economy is way too dependent on the housing market and it's nothing like Ireland or even like Canada and the US, people's pensions are heavily invested through superannuation funds and the likes.
Then again who knows...
Don't get mad, get even!

Stulic,

I agree the housing call is getting old and people have been wrong from pre 2008 I am looking more to the front lines of events to occur before housing is even affected..

These are usually very volatile and low impact numbers, seems today bulls will use anything to push higher. Price also affected by crosses EURAUD and GBPAUD sold off in the need of a healthy correction after a multi-week bull run.

I think more of the USD dumping in fear of Easing. Take a look at USDX is breaking the LTL.
