Recently, the Reserve Bank of Australia released the Monetary Policy Meeting Minutes. The RBA was widely expected to leave the official cash rate at 1.50% at its latest meeting, unchanged yet again.

As per the policy minutes, the global economy had expanded above trend in 2018, although it had lagged in the second half of the year. Yet, concerns over global economic growth remain in the limelight and the RBA hasn’t revealed about their next rate hike.

Besides this, the UK labor market report is on the radar. Economists are expecting a mixture of releases but it going to be worth trading today. I will discuss it further in the economic events outlook briefing.
