Outlook – Updates on July Anti-predictions
Anti-Predictions As at 1 July 2019
How are we going? As at 25 November 2019
Status
The Federal Reserve will NOT cut interest rates three times (or 75bps) in 2019
Indian long-term bond rates will NOT end above 7% Reported Chinese Growth will NOT fall below 6% Brexit will NOT matter
The Australian dollar will NOT finish below the current low of 2019 (67.4c)
The Federal Reserve cut interest rates in October for the third time this year. Currently at 6.5%. Low inflation is the good news reason for getting this right, sluggish growth is the ✔ bad news Latest YoY growth at 6.2%. Central government has retained enough levers to offset impacts of ✔ trade antagonism with the US With no proposal for Brexit likely to be put before ✔ the UK parliament in 2019, this one looks safe. Currently at 68c. ✔
