Marcus Take Tuesday
The lower-than-expected CPI number last week suggests a good chance that the RBA will pause rates, but almost all the strategists are saying the same thing, inflation is too high, and even if they do pause now, they will have to raise rates twice if not three times more. If they do pause, I think it’ll be good for the market, whatever the strategists are saying. And hopefully, it will extend this consumer discretionary rally for us. We have three retailers in our IDEAS PORTFOLIO.

If they do pause, I think it’ll be good for the market, whatever the strategists are saying. And hopefully, it will extend this consumer discretionary rally for us.

RBA Pauses
The RBA has left rates unchanged. Looks like they have taken on board last week's lower than expected CPI number – theire hawkishness appears to have been significantly tempered. They say inflation is only "slightly" higher than expected and due to temporary factors. Goodness – a lot less hawkish than expected. Runs against the Fed…
