Bank of America sees the RBA hiking by 25bps next week.
What it means
Bank of America's expectation for a 25bps rate hike from the RBA next week suggests a hawkish stance that could reinforce the tightening cycle in Australia. This move indicates their confidence in continued inflationary pressures, which might impact the AUD positively and reshape expectations around interest rates across the region. Traders should assess how this aligns with market pricing and sentiment ahead of the decision.
