Latest News About No RBA cuts before 2027 amid firm inflation

Economists now predict no longer any Reserve Bank of Australia rate cuts until 2027, despite a small 0.4 per cent fall in Melbourne Institute's inflation gauge in June.

The central bank faces renewed pressure to hike rates further this year as inflation remains over target.

Australia's dollar slid toward 0.6900 as the yield curve changed, prompting market concern.

The forecasts derive from analysis by the Australian Financial Review, Nine.com.au, and News.com.au, with several economists warning that excessive inflation will stop the RBA from cutting rates in the near term, heightening worries about growth.
