Assistant Governor Sarah Hunter said inflation is getting closer to the central bank’s target range and described the outlook as balanced, while stressing the need for a forward-looking approach given policy lags. She also pointed to signs of stronger consumer spending and reiterated the RBA’s goal of keeping the economy near full employment. Firmer economic data has recently tempered expectations of an immediate rate cut, with markets now assigning an 86% probability that policy will remain unchanged this month. Still, futures continue to price in around an 80% chance of easing in November. Investor focus is shifting to the upcoming jobs report and comments from other RBA officials.

The Australian dollar steadied around $0.666 on Tuesday, maintaining its highest level in over ten months, supported by diminishing expectations of further interest rate cuts by the RBA. Markets are now pricing in an 86% probability that the central bank will keep rates unchanged at its September meeting. This sentiment has been bolstered by a strong trade surplus in July, resilient Q2 GDP figures, and July inflation data that exceeded forecasts. Additionally, consumer inflation expectations rose in September, signaling sustained domestic demand and raising concerns about a possible resurgence in inflationary pressures. RBA Assistant Governor Sarah Hunter stated on Tuesday that the central bank is “nearing its inflation target.” She noted that economic risks are broadly balanced and stressed the need for a forward-looking policy approach, given monetary policy’s delayed effects. Hunter also reaffirmed the RBA’s focus on consumer spending and commitment to supporting full employment.
