Hi Roger,
Interesting article as always. Just in regards to the debt levels mentioned in the article, I notice the US 10 year rate has ticked up quite sharply in the last few weeks. If the US 10 year rate continues to trend upwards to over 3% would the Australian banks need to start raising lending rates out of sync with the RBA or would the effect be negligible? Seems that if this is the case it will catch a lot of people unawares
