Of course he does!

Anyway, here's our national treasure(r) in the Australian Financial Review today:

  • said Australia is in an environment "where we've got low inflation, low interest rates, low wages growth and low levels of business investment
  • "This is a really big challenge for the country - and that's not just true in Australia, it's true all around the world."
  • Morrison noted that the US economy's second-quarter growth rate was just 1 per cent, annualised, saying Australia wasn't immune from that weakness.... "I have no doubt that Glenn Stevens ... is keenly focused on that."

Full AFR piece is here, it may be gated, but give it a go!
