Re: Oz Forex - Losing the Faith

Macquarie bought a 51% share of Ozforex way back in 2007. I've not heard of any further acquisition by them since then.

Re: Buying a house in Perth? Knock 30% Off!

Yep, it's the usual green envy monsters that lurk about whenever there's the slightest hint of a bit of uncertainty in the economy. They don't like anyone else to have what they can't have.
