sorry didnt do one

yeah i agree with bobo123.....if high school students can predict what the australian economy is gonna do then wot is the point of spending all those years at uni doin econometrics and actuarials and the rest of it........sounds like a pretty stupid assignment

What?! Actuaries forecast the Australian Economy?! I thought that type of guessing was left to Economist!

i actually have no idea what an actuary does
it was just a random thing

I'm studying Actuarial ... and all I know is - it better be worth all my hours of study and isolation!

try research.comsec.com.au and then click on guest login and then on economic data and then, somewhere there, it will have the Comm. banks economic forecasts with articles and crap for the quarter. they also have like the last 3 quarters up there. its pretty good stuff.
