money money money · economic update: fuel prices, oil, interest rates & inflation (with Brian Parker, Chief Economist at ART) · 14 Apr 2026 podcast

I don't think the – China has a closed – effectively, it's hard to get money in and out of China.

Yeah, right.

And so that means that doing business in the Chinese RMB is more problematic.

Oh, Alice.

Because- A-L-Y-C-E.

But Elise to me is E-L-I-S-E or E-L-L-Y.

That tends to be where I land.

If you're thinking about making this kind of investment decision and any long-term asset – and property is a long-term asset – this idea that – and it's just –

Same with the share market.

Should I buy shares this week or next week or wait a few minutes?

If you have a 10-year plus horizon, which for assets like property and equities, you need to have that kind of horizon, then whether you'd buy today, tomorrow, next week or next month –

doesn't really matter.

And even if it did, good luck trying to predict when the perfect time is because there is really no ideal prediction here.

One thing I would say is that, and I'm a little bit torn here because certainly when I look at the underlying fundamentals of the property market, we still have a shortage of property, at least certainly in our major centres.

So demand for property has exceeded supply

It continues to exceed supply.

And so, consequently, this – my narrow economist training says if demand exceeds supply, prices should go up.

At least not go down.

And so – and also, we're seeing upward pressure on rents.

So, you know, certainly the rental yield is still probably okay, depending on where you are.
