60: Why a 5.1% RBA cash rate is a good idea, with Judo Bank's Warren Hogan


Listen Later

Warren Hogan, chief economic advisor at Judo Bank, has stirred up a few headlines recently calling for the RBA to hike three more times to really wrestle with the inflation beast. He said 4.35% is not enough, and the Board needs to go to 5.10% or thereabouts. We gave him some run time - away from sensationalist headlines - to explain this analysis and thought process, and why the mortgage belt might have to grit their teeth a bit longer.

Plus we speak with Denise Raward on the so called mortgage-cliff, as well as all the latest news.
