Welcome to the fourth RBA Rate Release of 2024 with Ben Kingsley and Evan Lucas!  

Here's a sneak peek into what our hosts cover in today's episode: 

📺 RBA’s Cash Rate Decision: Find out all about the Reserve Bank of Australia’s cash rate decision, as announced at 2.30pm (AEST) today! 

📈 Australia's GDP Growth Woes: Australia’s economic growth has slowed significantly, with GDP growth hitting its lowest since the early '90s recession. But population growth is helping to keep the country from a full-blown recession. Meanwhile, the RBA is getting restless with inflation still running high. 

🏅 Employment Market Tightness: Australia's job market is super tight, with strong demand for workers and a record number of people juggling multiple jobs. This shows some economic strength, but falling household savings amidst rising consumption could mean trouble ahead. 

🏠 Property Market Trends: Property finance is on the rise, with more new loan commitments for owner-occupier housing and investment properties. Ben breaks down land tax and rental yields across different states, giving us key insights into the property market and what it means for investors and policymakers. 

Whether you're an investor, homeowner, or just curious about economic trends, this episode is packed with valuable insights!
