Why is there a big difference in the rate between hifx 2.41 and ozforex 2.52.

Thank you in advance for your replies.

Just today the Aussie dollar has lost 4% so far on the Pound. Now trading at 2.54. I think it will drop even further!

I reckon you could be right - great if you are transferring cash over to Oz. The rate shown is about 2.51 from here ... http://www.pomsinoz.com/index.php?pa...rency-Exchange - there is a great chart thingy that shows the fluctuations over the few years and it does looks strong at the moment...but there is alot of weird stuff going on at the moment with the markets...

The Picketts is an unknown quantity at this point
Yesterday (Wed) purchased at $2.40. Came in this evening (Thu) and bought another lump at $2.51. Maybe tomorrow we'll get even more!!! Just hope the house money all goes through OK! OMG.......
