Murray Olds: Australian correspondent on the RBA cutting the OCR to 4.1 percent - Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive

Over in Australia, the RBA has moved to lower the Official Cash Rate by 25 basis points from 4.35 percent to 4.1 percent.

Australian correspondent Murray Olds says this will come as good news for homeowners, who have had their mortgage payments skyrocket over the past few months.
