“Acceleration in housing, utilities and transport cost are likely the main drivers of Q3 headline inflation. As for trimmed mean, we suspect price pressures have become more broad-based and could be very close to the headline at 1.0 per cent q/q, 4.9 per cent y/y, slightly higher than the RBA’s forecast.”“has been that the inflation, and especially services inflation, would be stronger than the RBA had hoped through Q3, challenging their August forecasts.
