澳大利亚10年期政府债券收益率在强劲的劳动力市场报告后上涨至3.97%左右，这抑制了澳大利亚储备银行即将降息的希望。数据显示，8月份雇主净增47500个工作岗位，几乎是经济学家预期的25000个工作岗位的两倍。失业率维持在4.2%不变，与预测相符。由于劳动力市场仍然紧张，储备银行在短期内不太可能降息，这与全球央行日益增长的趋势背道而驰。由于潜在通胀率仍然过高，澳大利亚储备银行在国际上仍然落后。另一方面，美联储在9月份的会议上开始了其宽松周期，降息0.5个百分点，这是自2020年3月以来的首次降息。
Australia's 10-year government bond yield advanced to around 3.97% following a strong labor market report, which dampened hopes of an imminent interest rate cut from the Reserve Bank of Australia. Data showed that employers added a net 47,500 jobs in August, nearly double the 25,000 expected by economists. The unemployment rate remained unchanged at 4.2%, in line with forecasts. With the labour market still tight, the Reserve Bank is less likely to cut rates in the near term, defying the growing trend among central banks globally. The RBA remains a laggard internationally as underlying inflation remained too high. On the other hand, the US Federal Reserve began its easing cycle with a half-point rate cut at its September meeting, marking its first reduction since March 2020.
