The Australian dollar is generally considered a risk sensitive currency, so what happens when markets are attempting to assess a US bank collapse, still hot inflation, and employment numbers that could be read two ways?

NAB’s Head of FX Strategy Ray Attrill joins the podcast to share:

  • His forecast for the Aussie dollar, and outlook for the USD
  • Why markets are rapidly repricing the likelihood of further rate rises
  • The impact of China’s reopening on commodities and the Australian economy, and
  • Whether inflation is likely to fall as quickly as central banks – and markets – are hoping.
