Welcome back!

Inflation fell by it’s biggest amount in  six years further locking in hopes for a 100 basis point cut by the Reserve Bank this week. 

Economic data also confirmed manufacturing fell each of the last six months to a record low as the declining economic growth further confirms a sharpening contraction.

Some economists are now predicting levels around 2.50% to 2.75% by the middle of 2009 as Australia verges on recession.
