As the market players are aware, Australian Central Bank has decided to lower the cash rate by 25 bps (or basis points) and, as a result of this, the rate stood at 0.75%. In the media release dated October 1, 2019, it was added that the Australian economy was expanded by 1.4% over the year to June quarter and that was weaker than anticipated. In the release, it was stated that low level of interest rates, spending on infrastructure, recent tax cuts, signs of stabilisation in some established housing markets as well as the brighter outlook with respect to the resources sector might support the growth.
As we know, the trade war between the US and China is one of the biggest threat to the growth of the global economy. The war can weigh over the key financial numbers of the global companies and can also disrupt their primary business activities. It can be assumed that performance of the Australian economy gets affected by health of the global economy. If the Australian economyâs performance is impacted, the affect can also be felt on Australian equities. In the event of slowdown, generally, the market players tend to avoid deployments towards equities, and they prefer deploying towards safer asset classes.
