Bond market pricing suggests that there is about a 20 per cent chance that the Reserve Bank of Australia will increase the cash rate in August. The chances of a rate rise in September are now 31 per cent. Quarterly CPI data to be released on Wednesday is likely to be a key factor in the RBA’s monetary policy decision; the central bank’s preferred measure of trimmed mean inflation is tipped to ease from one per cent to 0.9 per cent. Investors will also be keenly awaiting the outcome of the US Federal Reserve’s two-day policy meeting, and signs that rate cuts are on its agenda in coming months.
