Aussie Stocks Hits Fresh Record Close - ForexTV
The S&P/ASX 200 index rose by 0.7% to reach a new record closing of 8,756 on Wednesday, breaking its four-session losing trend. This improvement was largely attributed to advances in major banking stocks following weaker-than-expected inflation data, which fueled speculation about a potential rate cut by the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) in August. In the second quarter, Australia's headline inflation fell to 2.1% from the previous 2.4%, slightly below the anticipated 2.2%. Meanwhile, the RBA's preferred trimmed mean inflation measure decreased to 2.7% from 2.9%, remaining within the target band of 2–3%. The softer inflation figures, coupled with recent labor market softness, led to a full market pricing of a 25 basis points rate cut in August, with expectations for the rate to drop to 3.1% by the end of the year. Despite this, concerns persisted due to U.S. Commerce Secretary Lutnick's confirmation that there would be no postponement of President Trump's Friday tariff deadline, and separate trade discussions with China concluded without any significant progress. On the corporate front, the financial sector saw a 1.4% increase, with the Big Four banks posting gains between 1% and 1.6%, driven by optimism that lower interest rates would enhance credit demand and profitability. The real estate segment also saw a 1.2% rise, led by URW, which increased by 0.7%.The material has been provided by InstaForex Company - www.instaforex.com
Cliff Notes: Guarded Optimism - Action Forex
All eyes were on the long-awaited Q2 CPI in Australia. In the event, the data confirmed that inflation is on track to sustainably return to the centre of the RBA’s 2-3% target range. The disinflationary pulse was clearly on display across the bulk of the consumer basket, with the crucial trimmed mean measure tracking a 6-month annualised pace only a whisker above the midpoint (2.6%yr). The 0.7% gain in headline inflation brought the annual pace down towards the bottom of the band at 2.1%yr, as energy rebates continued to supress electricity prices through the year – note, this dynamic is set to reverse in coming quarters.
All Eyes on US Inflation - Action Forex
In the US, focus will be on the July CPI report. We forecast headline inflation at 0.2% m/m SA (prior: 0.3% m/m), and core inflation slightly higher at 0.3% m/m SA (prior: 0.2% m/m). With markets now pricing in a September rate cut after a weak jobs report, the CPI will offer crucial insights for the Fed's upcoming decision.
Mexico's inflation seen picking up in first half of August: Reuters poll
MEXICO CITY (Reuters) -Mexico's headline inflation likely rebounded in the first half of August underpinning prospects that the central bank would cut its key interest rate again, even though the rate remained within the official target, a Reuters poll showed on Wednesday. The median forecast from 14 participants saw the annual headline inflation rate reaching 3.66%, up from 3.48% in the second half of July. The core inflation rate, which strips out highly volatile items and is considered a better measure of the price trajectory, was however estimated to have sped up to 4.27% annually, from the prior figure of 4.22%.
