Talk about an anti-climax! Markets were on tenterhooks ahead of the revision to US CPI on Friday but, it turns out, there was nothing to see. NAB’s Tapas Strickland points out that the revision was one basis point higher for the three-month average. Now markets can focus on the next CPI print, which is out this week. Friday’s excitement in our region came from one bank’s call for the RBNZ to raise rates in February and April. Michelle Bullock didn’t rule out a rate rise for the RBA when she fronted up to parliament on Friday, but it seems unlikely. It’s a quiet start to the week, with China on holiday for the New Year, but Tapas takes us through some of the data highlights for later in the week.
