The general consensus of economists polled by Bloomberg is that Australia’s cash rate will rise in the first half of 2015, although the financial market has priced in a better-than-even chance of a rate cut by the end of 2014. Tim Toohey of Goldman Sachs is also bucking the trend, and believes that the Reserve Bank could potentially reduce the cash rate again by September.
