- Australia's headline inflation rate has accelerated to 4.3 percent.
- The treasurer blamed the rise in inflation on the war in the Middle East.
- The Reserve Bank of Australia's chief economist ruled out a recession.
Australia has recorded an acceleration in its headline inflation rate to 4.3 percent, a development the treasurer has linked to the conflict in the Middle East. Amid these rising price pressures, the Reserve Bank of Australia has pushed back against concerns of an impending economic downturn by ruling out a recession.
The broader political landscape also saw federal police respond to a bomb threat at parliament and the Greens outline new policy proposals. Further updates on fiscal measures and central bank policy are expected as policymakers navigate the current inflationary environment.
