The following two infographics highlight quarterly movements in the economy and investment markets across Australia and New Zealand.
The June quarter was a ‘risk-on’ environment with equity markets pushing higher despite persistent inflation and rate hikes by global central banks. Although headline inflation has been falling, core inflation is a key concern and remains high, leading central banks to raise rates. The real economy is slowing, but investors are hoping and anticipating the peak of the rate hiking cycle. Yields pushed higher and the inverted yield curve in the US became steeper as a recession in the US looms.
