Australians aged +14 expect inflation of 4% per year over the next two years, according to the Roy Morgan Inflation Expectations Index for March 2019. This is unchanged on February but down 0.3% on March 2018, and the index remains at its lowest since late 2016 for a second straight month. Inflation Expectations remained significantly below the nine-year average of 4.9% in March. Analysis by voting intentions shows that Inflation Expectations for supporters of the major parties diverged further in March, with the index decreasing by 0.2% for L-NP supporters to only 3.4%. In contrast the Inflation Expectations of ALP supporters increased by 0.2% to 4.1%. Greens supporters now have the lowest Inflation Expectations of any group after another fall, down 0.5% to 3.3%. March Inflation Expectations are based on personally interviewing a nationwide sample of 4,069 Australians aged 14+ face-to -face in their own homes.
