Expectations Index<\/strong> fell 8.3% to 143.4 over the 3 months to January, hitting its lowest level since Nov 2020.<\/p>\n<p>Growing expectations of interest rate rises have likely had a hand in the decline.<\/p>\n<p>That said, most Australians still expect prices to rise over the next year rather than fall, however they are less bullish than they were a year ago.<\/p>\n<p>I keep track of the state of consumer confidence because it gives an indication of what\u2019s ahead \u2013 after all it\u2019s consumers who make the market.<\/p>\n<h2>Here\u2019s what consumers expect<\/h2>\n<p><a

sharply in Victoria (\u201321.8% over 3 months to 126.1) with Queensland also recording a sizeable pull-back but from a firmer starting point (\u201312.1% to 146.7). <\/p>\n<p>NSW posted a slight 1.9% firming, the state index holding just below 150;\u00a0W.A. posted a 4.4% rise to 162.5.<\/p>\n<p>The weakening in price expectations coincides with a clear slowing in momentum across key markets.<\/p>\n<p>Nationally, prices lifted 0.6% in December and by an estimated 0.9% in January \u2013 the 9% annualised pace average over the two months well down on the 21% gain for the full year.<\/p>\n<p>That slowdown has centered on Sydney and Melbourne with pick-ups in Brisbane and Adelaide providing some offset.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly the divergent city trends are not particularly reflected in statehouse price expectations, suggesting the softer read on expectations reflects economy-wide factors such as the interest rate outlook.<\/p>\n<p><a

debt\u2019 as the wisest place for savings.<\/p>\n<p>Where consumers were a little more open to the risk they have shifted away from \u2018real estate\u2019 (7.3%) towards shares (10.4%) although both remain out of favour by historical standards \u2013 comparable to the 9.7% of consumers simply reporting \u201cdon\u2019t know\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, the <strong>Westpac Risk Aversion Index<\/strong> lifted from 42 in Sep to 47 in Dec, the highest read since the second half of 2018.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, that previous period was the last time consumers were also hawkish on the interest rate outlook.<\/p>\n<p>All else being equal, high-risk aversion can be expected to see more constrained spending, higher saving, and slower growth in household borrowing.<\/p>\n<p>In practice, the picture around spending and saving is being dominated by COVID-related volatility \u2013 lockdowns essentially manifesting as a form of \u2018forced savings\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>Borrowing and balance sheet behaviour may be a better reflection of risk-averse attitudes.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.propertyupdate.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/04.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\"
