RBA’s Hauser says Bank must remain strong in fight against inflation

Reserve Bank of Australia Deputy Governor Andrew Hauser not adding a lot what the minutes said earlier, no sign of an imminent rate cut from the RBA:

  • when inflation stops being high and sticky the Bank will act
  • US inflation nearing target, Australia’s lagging
  • expects core will hit target, but inflation is persistent
  • lowering inflation is a significant task and we are not completed yet

AUD/USD is falling on the disappointing NDRC press conference in China. Markets had high hopes of more stimulus announcements. We haven’t had any of note.
