Reserve Bank of Australia Deputy Governor Andrew Hauser not adding a lot what the minutes said earlier, no sign of an imminent rate cut from the RBA:

  • US inflation nearing target, Australia's lagging
  • expects core will hit target, but inflation is persistent
  • lowering inflation is a significant task and we are not completed yet
