At 1.50 pm in Brisbane (12.50pm Sydney time, 0150GMT):
Glenn Stevens, Governor of the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) addresses the American Chamber of Commerce in Australia
I wrote a bit of a spiel about the RBA yesterday, and how the efforts to talk the AUD lower seem to have diminished quite noticeably. Stevens has an opportunity again today to try to trash-talk it, based on recent evidence he won’t do much though. We’ll see.
Governor Stevens asked to smile for the cameras
