Great example of a golden rule of media commentary; all economic news is bad news.

Low unemployment? That's a labour shortage.

High GDP growth? The economy is overheating.

High rates of foreign investment? We are losing control of our economy.

Country experiencing historic levels of prosperity? Wealth is making everyone lazy, fat and unproductive.

So, in a real sense, there’s always something (and more accurately, many things) to fix with complex and dynamic interrelationships that present different gradients of risk at different altitudes and size of economy.
