HSBC's Paul Bloxham, Chief Economist for Australia and New Zealand

  • Growth is strong, commodity prices have risen, and the drag from the mining investment decline is set to fade
  • Although underlying inflation remains below target, we think it is close to its trough
  • We expect that the RBA will not need to cut further, although the risk of a rising AUD is the key challenge to this view
