re: hdr margin loans -hardmano No such luck for Aussies Rayrac. The best they can do is get a 50% reduction in capital gains tax for shares held for 12 months or longer.

Margin loans with low % gearing are only worthwhile on franked dividend stocks and pre paying interest. Sad when they are only offering 50% and still want that % interest rate. CFD etc are better bang for your buck especially on non franked divedend payers.
