Job losses, rising incomes and the next rates decision
Manage episode 374703160 series 2964023
There's been a slight increase in the number of unemployed people (36,000 people) but there's also slight positive. Putting up interest rates while unemployment is worsening, is unlikely to sit right with the Reserve Bank. The economists this episode explain why. We also examine the latest average weekly earnings. They're on the rise. So which state is performing best? Which job? And women are ticking ahead - we reveal why. With jobs and earnings data now to consider - we explain what's likely to happen at Philip Lowe's last RBA board meeting as Governor. AMP Australia Deputy Chief Economist Diana Mousina and St George Bank Senior Economist Jarek Kowcza join Gillian for this look under the economic hood.
