Not a focus, although official inflation will be (next report due April 26, 0130GMT)

But. for today it's the employment report we're waiting on:

0130GMT - Australia - Employment report March

  • Employment Change March: expected +20K, prior -6.4K
  • Unemployment Rate: expected 5.9%, prior 5.9%
  • Full Time Employment Change, prior was +27.1K
  • Part Time Employment Change, prior was -33.5K
  • Participation Rate, expected is 64.6%, prior was 64.6%

I've posted up a couple of previews of the report already:

  • Australia employment report coming up on Thursday - sneak preview
  • Australia employment report due Thursday - preview

AND ... also at 0130GMT from Australia - RBA Financial Stability Review

  • The Bank is likely to focus on housing market risks and macroprudential tools.
