Rhetoric around the RBA keeping interest rates high until 2025 are doing the rounds and holding the Australian Dollar (AUD) “Bid” against the New Zealand Dollar (NZD).

Governor Bullock says the fight to tame inflation is far from over, the longer it stays above 3% the harder it becomes to massage it lower.

On the docket next week, RBA cash rate and unemployment rate announcements.
