April 2024
In the April edition of Economic Intelligence we cover:
- Has Australia’s labour market turned a corner? – Our Research Note goes behind the headline unemployment numbers to show that Australia’s labour market is decidedly slowing already
- Tracking Australian industry – Inflation continues its march down, household spending still weak, real wage growth finally returns, vacancies continue to moderate, a multi-speed economic slowdown, and the working age population finally recovers
- Economic forecasts – OECD forecasts inflation to decline quicker, yet geopolitcal risks remain elevated while the ongoing affects of higher interest rates continue to weigh on growth.
