Australians aged +14 expect inflation of 3.7% per year over the next two years, according to the Roy Morgan Inflation Expectations Index for April 2019. This is down 0.3% on March and down 0.8% on April 2018, and a new record low for the indicator. Inflation Expectations have now dropped to 1.2% points below the nine-year average of 4.9%, the largest gap below average since late 2015. Analysis by voting intentions shows that Inflation Expectations for L-NP supporters have dropped to only 3.4%, down 0.7% from a year ago, while those of ALP supporters are now just above the national average at 3.8%, also down by 0.7%. The Inflation Expectations of Greens supporters are in comparison little changed from a year ago at 3.8%, down by only 0.2%. April Inflation Expectations are based on personally interviewing a nationwide sample of 4,154 Australians aged 14+ face-to-face in their own homes.
