Why do you say that? Please, allow me to put the playing field in perspective when it comes to the guessing game by quoting today's age newspaper:

"Indeed, it's a year to the day since the best economic minds at ANZ reported that the dollar would trade above parity with the US dollar, reach US104¢ by Christmas 2008, and Reserve Bank base rates would sit at 7.75 per cent.

For the record, the Aussie is at a seven-month high against the greenback of US78.58¢, and the RBA's base rate is at a 49-year low of 3 per cent."

C'mon, my attempt at the short term guessing game was HEAPS better than theirs, you have to admit!
