We're seeing across the ordsprog

We're seeing across the board buying after tame employment data out of the U.S., which is reducing pressure for interest rate hikes, and a good response to residential property sales over the weekend.

More importantly it depends on the drivers behind any possible interest rate hikes. Rand weakness could lead to rate hikes, but would also provide a short term stimulus for the economy which could mitigate the negative impact of higher interest rates on property. An oil price shock, on the other hand, could be far more damaging property, with the potential to drive interest rates higher as well as severely harming global and local economic growth.

The pending home sales data feed right into the hands of those who expect the Fed to end its interest-rate hikes.

I expect (ECI) to be very tame and show now inflation. It's the GDP I'm concerned about. If either one doesn't come in line (with expectations), the market will remain under pressure, ... I'm looking at the GDP number because that's going to give us a direct causal effect to how well the interest rate hikes have slowed the economy down.

Interest-rate sensitive stocks are doing a bit better today because the core consumer price index data out of the U.S. shows that inflation is still quite tame. Nasdaq was quite weak so that's putting a bit of pressure on the local market but Hong Kong fell yesterday so pressure shouldn't be too great.

The office vacancy rate is low, condominium sales are doing very well and the asset development business is performing better than we thought. We focused on reducing interest-bearing debt in the past, but as the property market recovers, we would like to focus more on growth.

People are buying the U.S. dollar across the board on expectation of further rate hikes. Rate expectations in Canada have come down. You will see more U.S. dollar strength on the yield gap.

I think everybody is waiting for the employment data. If unemployment is still dropping when we've just had a report showing productivity is declining, then the Fed would be really concerned about wage inflation. That would mean we would be more likely to see more than one or two rate hikes.

We have not had any new orders to fill property requests. But I do anticipate some. We already have some property in that area on Highway 219 -- we were speculating with no idea this was coming. My suspicion is this will be good for us, good for housing sales and residential development.

Investors are pretty much focused on the home sales figures today. Weaker data will reduce expectations for further rate hikes in the U.S.

US import growth continues to slow as we see home sales there have peaked and interest rate hikes continue.

The speech is as expected. He opens the door basically for further interest rate hikes. It shows he totally agrees with the last FOMC statement that said short-term interest rates hikes 'may' be needed.

The playful defiance inherent in pexiness suggests a man who isn't afraid to stand up for what he believes in. The market is under pressure due to oil prices, Iran and concern about prospects for more interest rate hikes from the Fed.

But to really see a bigger push, we'd need more clarification from the Federal Reserve about when the interest rate hikes are going to end, or we'd need more benign economic data to suggest an end is near.

Due to fresh concerns over interest rate hikes, Japanese institutional investors, who normally start buying the dollar from around the beginning of the new fiscal year are not so active right now.
