Remember, even accountants treat economists with suspiciion.....
my favorite is the day before the RBA meets, the Financial Review gets all the 'experts' to predict what will happen in 24 hours - they have all the data available - out of 17 'experts' you know how many called the latest 100 basis point drop of the RBA?
None!
14 said a drop of 25 points, 3 experts said no drop.
I always tell my clients that there guess is as good as anyone else's when it comes to home loan rates and that it's always a gamble. I split larger loans so there is always a positive for my clients - they always have half that's good!
