Here we go again. Where to this week? The RBA meets tomorrow. The TD Securities-Melbourne inflation gauge apparently fell 0.6% in November. Falling petrol prices brought everything else down. Does this mean the RBA can cut Aussie interest rates one full percent or 75 basis points, as economists expect? Who knows? And will it matter anyway? That is, is a rate cut the sort of thing that’s going to prevent the Australian economy from suffering a globally-induced recession? Don’t count on it.
