Asset bubbles
I came across this headline this morning on theaustralian.com.au/business It's pay walled so couldn't read the actual article. For non Aussies, RBA (Reserve Bank Of Australia)
Aren't all assets (real estate, shares) already pretty much in a bubble? Haven't low interest rates already created that situation? So what more do they need to 'closely monitor' before they realise it is a bubble.....when it bursts..lol?
I couldn't help have a chuckle at this..RBA eyes risk of ‘sharp correction’ in asset prices
The RBA says it is ‘closely monitoring’ the market for any sign record low interest rates have triggered a bubble that might bust.

From the same site:
This is referring to median house prices in the major capital cities being worth more than $1 million.How Australia became a millionaire factory in 2021
Australia’s millionaire explosion has been largely driven by RBA’s record low interest rates.
Re: Asset bubbles
Interest rates are so low and there's so much liquidity in all markets we're already in the everything bubble.
The question is what we're heading for. A bubble burst or very high inflation driving prices even more up. For now it looks like we're down road number two.
