  5. The RBA looks set to reverse course, with economists now predicting a rate hike as soon as February 3rd, following higher-than-expected inflation data.
    While the central bank cut rates three times last year, stubborn inflation is forcing its hand. The big question is: can stressed borrowers handle it?

    Key Points from the Analysis:

    * A single 0.25% hike could push 1.3 million Australian households into mortgage stress.
    * Economists are divided: some urge immediate action to curb inflation, while others warn hiking too fast risks "snuffing out" consumer spending and economic growth.
    * The RBA faces a tough communication challenge, trying to explain why rate rises are necessary to people struggling with high living costs and massive housing debt.

  8. The East Coast gas cartel is draining Australia's economy. Skyrocketing energy prices have pushed interest rates to unsustainable levels for Aussie mortgage holders.

    This foreign-owned, China-aligned, undertaxed, job-sparse parasite is destroying industries and making Australia poorer, not richer—while strengthening China and leaving us vulnerable to its supply chains.

    The only obligations banks will meet will be to unswervingly maximise their profits.

    Mortgage stress is the result of basic banking strategy.

    The less likely you are to repay a loan the harder a bank will make it for you to repay.
