The Reserve Bank of Australia is set to increase interest rates tomorrow, following a near-record tax revenue and rising inflation concerns. Australian shares closed higher ahead of the anticipated hike, while the Australian dollar did well early in the week. Treasurer Jim Chalmers blamed the war for the rising rates, and analysts warn that the RBA may target the wrong group with the hike. The Australian Financial Review notes that Labor must take responsibility for sticky inflation, and the AUD/USD exchange rate is holding steady ahead of the RBA decision and CPI data.
