Aussie Interest Rates
Hi guys,
Can I assume the Aussie interest rates have not gone up? Halewood told me yesterday they would probably go up overnight and then the rate against the $ would probably drop (ie we should have bought $ yesterday). Anyway we didn't - we didn't have the right gut feeling about it! We are not being greedy - just don't want to be stupid either! Max :) |

Looking at the ozzie papers .......if it doesn't rise this week , will next month.
I got 2.4 a couple a weeks a go ! With HIFX , following rates last six month's felt could live with that ! :confused: |

If not perhaps you could leave half in UK account and transfer when rate is better ? |
i remember when we first looked at migrating about 16 months ago it was about 2.80.
That seems totally unachievable now or in the near future....bugger. |

Swings and roundabouts my friend. Do you jump off the roundabout when it is going too fast? Or do you stay on and throw up over your shoes???? ;) |
