Australia, in particular, Sydney and Melbourne will surely find that out as interest rates are set to rise at 0.25% per month to the years end, if not longer.

Walker88 Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 1 hour ago, HappyExpat57 said: Remember the good ol' days where you were told you could put $1000 in the bank in your teens or early 20's, leave it alone, and retire a millionaire? I was getting 6% compound interest on a simple savings account in the late 60's. I've said it often and will say it again: corporate greed is killing us all. I think you are a bit confused about the nature of banks. The rates banks pay is a function of general market rates. Banks tend to depend on an upward sloping yield curve, as most of their funding is short term, so they borrow cheaply (relative) and loan long. If market rates---say 10Y USTs---are 8%, as they were for much of the time until the first dot-com crash, then banks might pay 5-6% on your savings. Banks tend to need a spread of 200+ pips to cover all of their costs, both fixed and variable. In case you didn't notice, 10Y rates have been averaging about 1.6% for the last few years (mostly since the 2008 Financial Crisis). The 10Y is generally used to price mortgages, which is why mortgage rates have been so low for so long. Now factor in a bank's need for a spread, and the fact most of their funding is short term, and you can easily see why their rates are so low on call items like savings for depositors. It isn't corporate greed, it's 'how do we remain an ongoing concern?'. Now that the 10Y has moved up, and the Fed has raised short term rates, banks will soon offer you a better return. Best you don't wish for a return to the historical average, however, because the worldwide debt bubble will burst if rates returned to the mean. Just consider the US and its debt of $28T. Each 1% upward shift in the Yield Curve adds about $280 billion to the YEARLY deficit (depending on the tenor of the outstanding US debt and maturity schedule). A return to the historical average of 8% on the 10Y, which generally would have 30 day TBill rates around 6%, and the US would suffer an additional trillion plus in yearly deficits just from debt service. Now credit cards charging 29% are a different story, but that is a combination of greed and deadbeat borrowers who max out their cards. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also his Twitter investment where he promised a much higher price then it sits now. Elon lost about 35 billions USD in the last week, things are starting to get interesting for him Twitter board sold just in time, the lucky <deleted>, but if Elon had waited one week, he could have gotten the same deal at 20% off 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
