RBA: VIEW: Westpac notes that "the minutes confirm that the Board is prepared to
move and probably expects to move again but prefers to wait a while to assess
the impact of the first two cuts. Our forecasts for growth, inflation and the
unemployment rate clearly point to the need for further stimulus, and we expect
that the November meeting will provide that timing. However we do recognise that
while growth and inflation remain key policy objectives, the labour market has
the most immediate priority. With updates to conditions in the labour market
being provided on a monthly basis, prospects for the next move being as early as
September or October cannot be dismissed."
