Summary: Australian Economy • Australian households continue to act cautiously, curtailing spending and reducing debt. • Soft household spending is impacting broader economic activity, particularly in retail spending. • High Australian dollar weighing on manufacturing and exporters. • Weak balance sheet growth and poor residential property markets creating headwinds for the banking industry. • Overall economic activity is underpinned by strong demand for Australian commodities and resurgent business investment. • Nominal GDP surging, unemployment at 5% and business investment set to take off  all adding pressure to RBA to increase interest rates further.
