Australia’s longest serving finance minister, former WA Liberal senator Mathias Cormann, warns Australia is drifting in the wrong direction, saying the only cure for the cost of living squeeze is an “economy that produces more for every hour worked”.

In a major address to the Centre for Independent studies on the Gold Coast on Saturday, the now secretary-general of the Paris-based OECD, will argue that short-term sugar hits like cash handouts, energy rebates, price caps and protection will not make for a better and more competitive Australia.

“Australia is drifting in the wrong direction,” Mr Cormann says in his speech.

IMF warns Australia faces stalling economy, rising unemployment and persistent inflation

Australians face a slowing economy, some of the worst inflation in the developed world and a weakening job market, according to key global player.

In its latest report, the International Monetary Fund paints a sobering picture of the Australian economy.

According to its figures, gross domestic product will stall, growing at just 1.6 per cent in the next year.

Jobseekers face a tougher road ahead too, with the IMF projecting the unemployment rate will peak at 4.7 per cent. This is up from the official unemployment rate of 4.6 per cent but well above the 4.3 per cent the IMF had forecast for 2027 back in April.

If the prediction pans out, this would be the largest increase in terms of percentage points among advanced economies.

It would also mean Australia would be one of just seven advanced economies to have a worsening jobless rate.

Australia’s inflation problem is set to continue despite the IMF expecting inflation to ease from 3.9 per cent this year to 3.1 per cent next year.

Australia would then have the fifth-highest inflation rate of advanced economies ahead of only Iceland, Greece, Austria and Andorra.

Plus, the rate would still be above the RBA’s target of between 2 to 3 per cent.

First home buyers are continuing to flee from the property market as mortgage demand falls for the third straight month.

New figures from ratings agency Equifax revealed demand for first-home buyer loans dropped again over September and was 22 per cent below the level reported at the same time last year.

Recent budget tax reforms were sold as “levelling the playing field” for first home buyers by limiting investor demand but the Equifax Consumer Market Pulse shows there’s less people entering the market all together.

Equifax chief solutions officer Kevin James said there was a notable shift in borrowing behaviour as young buyers turned away from taking on debt.

Beijing’s push to diversify away from the dollar and Chinese households’ search for a safe place to put their savings has fueled China’s record gold buying.

WHY IS CHINA WINNING THE GOLD STACKING GAME?

While some countries in the West are being encouraged to chase S&P highs and other assets, China is looking at the direction of the monetary system and continuing to buy physical gold.

Matthew Piepenburg (Partner at Von Greyerz) says this is part of a monetary systemic shift and that China is looking years ahead.

But daily investors can also learn a lot from China’s approach:

•⁠ ⁠Keep stacking no matter where prices move: Don’t let every price move change your plans.
•⁠ ⁠Think of the future: Build wealth that can be carried into the next generation.

Owning gold is a long-term commitment. Those who are here for the long haul can give their gold the time to do what it has always done: preserve wealth through changing times.
