🇦🇺 AUD: Inflation Keeps Pressure on RBA


📊 Australia’s CPI slowed, but still sits at 3.7% — above the 2–3% target.

⚠️ New inflation risks rising:
• 🛢 Fuel prices up ~22% → CPI spike incoming
• 🌾 Fertilizer shortages → higher food prices ahead
• 🏠 Housing costs still elevated

📅 Key focus: May 5 RBA meeting
🔼 If inflation stays hot → rate hike likely
🔽 If pressures ease → RBA may hold

💡 Bottom line:
Inflation is not under control → AUD remains sensitive to rate expectations
