�Boom�-erang at point of no return? Australian economic boom ending
Reply
......
Right now, the Australian banking system resembles the European and US equivalents just before the 'Great Financial Crash' of 2008, and it's clear that the Australian government has been managing a bubble, not an economy for the last six years. Scarily, the balance sheets of two of Australia's four pillar-banks have cash-to-asset ratios that are lower than what Lehman Brothers held in the US 15 months before its collapse. Worse again, the asset sheets of each of the 'big four' financial institutions represent close to half of Australia's total GDP � Lehman's was just five per cent of the American whole, so it's obvious that this is contrived to end extremely badly.
Furthermore, Australia has the highest property price-to-income ratio in the Western world allied to the largest value home-loans relative to family incomes.
So what�s all this 'wealth' based on? Is Australia somehow more technologically-advanced than the rest of the world? Does it have killer innovations that the rest of the world lacks? No, it doesn't. The entire bubble is based on mining minerals and exporting them to China and the latter country is beginning to rein in its manic house building programs as it looks to consolidate its future � as evidenced by the recent historic gas deal with Russia, which sees its focus switch to stronger partnership with its northern neighbor and a change of focus to industrial development rather than erecting residential developments, many of which lie empty.
As a result of this, the spot price of iron ore is beginning to fall and is predicted by some to return to its historic price of under $20 a metric ton by 2017 and possibly as early as next year. This would leave three of Australia's five largest mining companies bankrupt.

Despite waffling on for minutes about risk management and monitoring, no one at The Fed has mentioned the total carnage in the repo market, spike in fails-to-deliver, and record reverse repo window-dressing that just occurred.
The use of the term "reach for yield" twice and "bubble" 5 times, and admission that the Fed should never have popped the housing bubble, leaves us less sanguine than Goldman and wondering if this was Janet's subtle and nervous 'irrational exuberance" moment.

We forecast the ADP report to show a 210k rise in employment compared with 179k in May. Release of May factory orders later in the afternoon are anticipated to post a decline of 0.2% on the month.

Intra-Day Market Moving News and Views
GBP/USD - .. Sterling's stellar performance in 2014 is backed up by positive fundamentals as U.K. growth is the strongest in the G7 countries n recent upbeat eco. data adds to market speculation of a first hike in Britain's interest rate sooner rather than later.
The Telegraph reported on Tuesday U.K. manufacturing sector expanded for a 16th consecutive month amid swollen order books n increased production. Strong demand for orders both at home and abroad also meant manufacturers took on staff at their quickest pace since March 2011.
Survey compilers Markit's senior economist Rob Dobson said "UK manufacturing continued to flourish in Jun, rounding off one of the best quarters for the sector over the past two decades." He added "With levels of production surging higher, and order books swollen by a further upswing in demand from both domestic and overseas clients, job creation accelerated to its highest for over 3 years."
The pound eases in Asia in tandem with intra-day retreat in eur/usd after yesterday's rally to a fresh 5-1/2 year peak of 1.7167. The pound jumped from 1.7102 to 1.7136 after U.K. mfg PMI beat estimate n climbed to 57.5 vs forecast of 56.8, st specs were reported buying cable on the data, price later rose to session high of 1.7167 near NY midday b4 pulling back on profit-taking.
Looks like the usual range trading in Asia would continue b4 sterling's recent strong ascent resumes as the trend is your trend. Initial bids are noted at 1.7140-30 n more below with stops reported below yesterday's low at 1.7096.
On the upside, a mixture of selling interest n stops is touted at 1.7465/70. Pay attention to U.K. construction PMI, forecast for Jun is 59.5 vs previous reading of 60.0, although this is the least of the important 3 PMIs, if actual is higher than street estimate, this will give sterling bulls another reason to take the pound higher.

This morning is light in terms of data from Europe. Spain�s June unemployment and euro area May PPI data are both scheduled for release. The latter will probably show that factory gate inflation remained unchanged on the month, adding little insight ahead of the ECB governing council decision on Thursday. UK June construction PMI survey data, also due out this morning, is anticipated to continue its gradual decline from a January high of 64.6. Consensus estimates project a modest decline to 59.8 from 60 in May. Today�s survey will be of interest given recent macroprudential efforts to cool residential house prices and the recent decline of mortgage approvals. Residential housing has been a key driver behind the improvement in construction activity this year.

Jay re spreads, normally keep an eye on 10's day to day but you have them all to hand as at any point in time the currency can start correlating with any of them and honestly with just about anything else, so you need it all, bonds, indices. thats fine when your calendar is empty, otherwise its just impossible and i leave it to support and resistance levels.
