It feels like a school dance where nobody wants to be the first one on the floor, for fear that nobody else will join in and leave the over-eager dancer looking like a complete idiot. Regardless of who goes first, I think it’s important to remember that for people who are just now starting to feel the pinch of higher rates on various outstanding loans, a 25 bp reduction in the central bank’s rate will probably not provide the kind of relief that is needed. Anyone who has been feeling the pinch of higher rates for a while will likely struggle with higher rates for years before rates come down significantly.
