STIR

RBA-dated OIS pricing is 7-10bps firmer for 2025 meetings after today’s Employment Report. A cumulative 5bps of easing is priced by year-end versus -8bps pre-data.

  • Job growth printed higher than expected again in September. Employment rose 64.1k after a downwardly revised 42.6k in August.
  • The unemployment rate was revised down to 4.1% and held steady at a lower rate in September. The participation rose 0.1pp to 67.2%, a new high.
  • The continued strength in the labour market is likely going to keep the RBA on hold for now.
