Australian GDP data for Q2 is due tomorrow

The consensus forecast had been +0.4% .... that may be lower now ... I'll check

-

Wpac (Sean Callow):

  • Government spending probably enough to help Australia avoid negatvie GDP in Q2
  • With 0.6ppt contribution. 3% q/q is biggest rise since Q1 2010, unexpected

OK ... just checked the Bloomberg consensus forecast and no change from +0.4%

I reckon that will change ....

Due at 0130GMT on Wednesday 2 September 2015, so will look again in the morning (my time)
