The latest quarterly business sentiment survey by the Australian Chamber of Commerce & Industry (ACCI), covering the final three months of calendar 2014, shows a marked deterioration. Retailers note that the pre-Christmas period was the weakest since 1992, and there is a general feeling that economic conditions will worsen and the jobless rate rise. ACCI CEO Kate Carnell is urging the Federal Government to roll out reforms, and the Reserve Bank of Australia to lower the official cash interest rate that has been left unchanged at 2.5% for 14 months
