Wednesday 8th June 2022It was only a month ago that RBA governor Lowe was suggesting a 25 basis point hike was business as usual, with the bank wanting to signal that things would return to normal with a standard adjustment in interest rates. As NAB’s Ray Attrill points out, it was only a few months ago that the RBA was suggesting rates weren’t going up until 2024. Things changed sharply yesterday. This morning we look at the market reaction, from bond yields and equities, to the cross-rate with the New Zealand dollar. There’s also discussion on the ECB, with the potential for bond purchases in southern European nations who will be hit hardest from rate hikes.
