Futures markets are pricing the chance of a cut at 68 per cent. There is a <span class=\"scayt-misspell\">groundswell<\/span> of opinion calling for a cut in order to get our dollar down. Whether the <span class=\"scayt-misspell\">RBA<\/span> pays attention to that or not is another matter.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tI also note that market watchers in Europe are looking to see if Spain requests financial assistance this week. While everyone argues over whether that is a good thing or not for markets, one result that I can guarantee is that if Spain gets assistance, then it will cause everyone to start talking about whether Italy will request a bailout or not. Spanish and Italian 10 year bond yields continue to ease back, so that is a good sign for the stability of our markets for now.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.fnarena.com\/ckfinder\/userfiles\/images\/0_8_gable.jpg\" style=\"width: 650px;height: 518px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe market continues to congest around this 4300 &ndash; 4400 area, resulting in a net move of 3 points since this time last week. Yesterday&rsquo;s volume was the second lowest for the year [half the country had a public holiday] with the afternoon&rsquo;s price rejection of the 4400 area becoming a familiar sight. In the short term, the market may have another day or two up here before dropping back under 4350.<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<br \/>\n\t<em>Content included in this article is not by association necessarily the view of <span class=\"scayt-misspell\">FNArena<\/span> (see our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fnarena.com\/index2.cfm?type=dsp_webht\">disclaimer<\/a>).<\/em><br \/>\n\t&nbsp;<br \/>\n\t<em>Visit Michael&nbsp;Gable&#039;s website at&nbsp;<span>&nbsp;<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.michaelgable.com.au\">www.michaelgable.com.au\/<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.michaelgable.com.au\/\">.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p>\n\t<em>After leaving Macquarie Bank&#039;s Securities Group in 2008 after many years of service, Michael has gained a highly regarded reputation in the financial services industry.
