After 44 years we have a current account surplus

In 1975 under that economic guru ( you do understand irony don't you?) we last has a current account surplus.
Finally after 44 years we have one again. My old mate Peter Martin has a good article on it.

to put it in simple terms there are great similarities between the two occasions.
High commodity prices and low business investment !

We import around 80% of our business investment thus we never should get too worried about current account deficits.

Much ado about nothing
