UBS are looking for a pause tomorrow, a 25bp rate hike in May. (And a cut later in the year, nominating the November meeting):

• The February monthly CPI indicator implies CPI is very likely tracking below the RBA’s implied profile
• Assuming financial market volatility/dislocation eases by May and CPI does not continue surprising on the downside, we still expect the RBA to hike 25 basis points, to a peak of 3.85 per cent at their May meeting.
