Forex Flash: RBA statement should have limited AUD response - Westpac
FXstreet.com (Barcelona) - The RBA Statement on Monetary Policy (1.30GMT) will generate a slew of headlines but probably limited net AUD response, notes Sean Callow, FX strategist at Westpac.
Mr. Callow adds: "Unlike Treasury, which may lower its growth forecasts in Tue’s budget, the RBA already has cautious GDP forecasts, 3% for FY12/13 (Westpac 2.9%) and 2-3% for FY13/14 (Westpac 2.5%). CPI forecasts will be shaved lower after the soft Q1 CPI. Any commentary on AUD will of course be closely watched."
