Australia is at an economic crunch point

The March Reserve Bank Board meeting is upon us - so what economic data is going to be KEY to its decision on interest rates? This episode examines what's at play, from economic growth and retail spending to household savings, building approvals and monthly CPI. It's a passionate discussion as we get 'deep and meaningful' about the economy and why people are still spending. Plus we ask, and try to answer, if we've managed to 'build back better' post COVID. Whatever happens - the economy is at a 'crunch point' - so is a recession coming or not? Impact Economics Lead Economist Angela Jackson and Independent Economist Nicki Hutley join Gillian to explain.
