    Ive always thought that at some point interest rates will have to start going up again .
    The problem is APRA should have really cracked down on poor lending practices, especially around interest only loans, long before the RBA starting driving down interest rates in an attempt to kick start the economy .
    Now they have completely run out of options and the housing market(debt) is controlling the economy.
    Interesting comment from Peter Costello
    "If money is more expensive, asset prices must fall. Not all prices in every situation but overall they must fall."

    If you have a strong balance sheet and a conservative investor rate rise and fall doesn't really affect you, it just gives you options to act on the opportunities to buy stuff cheap from weaker investors
