On today's Wealth & Wisdom podcast, we're unravelling the complexities of economics and finance. With esteemed economist, Saul Eslake, we pull back the curtain on the world of inflation and interest rates. With over four decades of experience in Australian financial markets, Saul's insights are invaluable. Saul gives us the lowdown on what's really happening within the Aussie economy compared to global standards.

This year's immigration intake means a city the size of Newcastle has effectively arrived looking for accommodation within the nation's existing housing stock - and it's the key reason rental incomes are soaring and vacancy rates are close to one per cent. Moreover, there is very little to suggest the scenario of demand greatly outweighing supply will change over the next three years. In today's show we cover; the very strong outlook for rental investment property, why house prices can keep rising moderately from here, rock bottom home ownership levels for younger Australians and is Hobart set to slip from Australia's fourth most expensive city.

Rocketing inflation sparks a new political tussle over who's the better economic manager. Childcare is one of key rising costs and parents are struggling to budget it in. Respected independent economist Saul Eslake warns inflation could be tough to manage whoever wins the election.

After Wednesday's larger-than-expected inflation number, all attention has turned to the Reserve Bank's meeting on Tuesday. If the bank moves next week, it will be the first time there's been a rise in a campaign since 2007, the election John Howard lost. Pointing to recent rate rises overseas, independent economist Saul Eslake says: “If the Reserve Bank were to do nothing in the face of this much sharper-than-expected acceleration in inflation, it would be leaving itself open to a charge of acting in a political way, which would undermine its credibility for an extended period. "So I think the Reserve Bank really has to raise interest rates at its meeting next week.” If it doesn't, Governor Philip Lowe would require “a very persuasive explanation”. If the bank didn't act next week, it could subsequently have to make a 75 basis points rise in one hit, “which would be a considerable shock to the mortgage-paying population in particular, but I think for small businesses and a whole lot of other participants in Australia's economy more broadly.”

I'll be talking to Tom Cornell, the Head of Assessments (APAC) at HireVue about how Aussies can prepare for The Great Resignation where employees are moving away from jobs where they feel unappreciated and are instead moving toward new priorities and goals, from more money to greater control over their time in the COVID-era.
