Wow, just read they are closing rural branches. To think they are the biggest profiteers, so why are they closing branches?
Because they are holding too much investor debt that's why. That debt is at the mercy of the stock market and they know it. They are batting down the hatches.

Food for thought just the same, Vendor has been rather pushy to the tenants as the tenants came to see us last night, Had to explain it was nothing to do with us They said the Landlord/Vendor had been annoying them.

Did you see Paul Henry? He interviewed a British economist who predicted the 2008 crash, she said, NZ is in a very precarious position with its banks loaning willy nilly to housing speculators and NZ has the worst rate of investment debt in the world. She goes further to say NZ will be in trouble if the government keep sitting on their hands without dealing to the situation because the stock markets worldwide are flagging. Two Trillion lost recently. Things are heating up now. Banks know it. Although the reserve bank announced more interest rate cuts to come, the only way banks are going to absorb their unmanageable debt is to increase interest rates and cut back on infrastructure. Starting with rural bank closures and staff layoffs. You know things are collapsing when banks start cutting back as banks are highly profitable. They are expecting some form of impending collapse. Remember, you heard it here first lol

Remember, you heard it here first lol I just heard on radio, Bill English warning of interest rate hikes even thought government and the reserve bank said a few months back, more interest rate cuts to come in the near future. This will be bad news for stock brokers, housing speculators and home owners using equity to get loans. Sooner or later the housing bubble will pop. It's only a matter of time.
