Posts: 0 		The bond market 30 yr will continue to rebound from any dips and likely go as high as 122.00/124.00 before the FED is done lowering rates in my opinion.

Lower rates = higher bond prices for the futures.

Posts: 0 		How is it possible for the Ozzy central bank to keep rising rates while the whole world is in the mid stages of cutting rates ?? A little confused here unless the explanation has purely to do with commodities and their skyrocketing prices. Cant seem to establish a clear line of thought here.

The reason the RBA keeps it rates high is because without high rates nobody will invest in the country. The country is so isolated and away from world trade that they need the high rates to attract investment. Much the same as most other countries too but the other countries have more and heavier industries not just mining and farming.

Another major reason is that they are a major exporter of raw materials to the booming economies (China and India in particular) in that part of the world. As money flows in from all those external sources, it gets unleashed in the local economy and can produce damaging inflation. One of the the most effective tools available to the RBA is raising interest rates to discourage excessive borrowing and associated increases in prices with out a corresponding increase in real output.
