ep 173 | The week ahead - should we expect a housing market rebound?

This week will be an eventful one in the US, with the June Federal Reserve meeting on Tuesday and Wednesday as well as the May consumer price index report. In the UK we'll get monthly GDP and some fresh labour market indicators ahead of the Bank of England meeting next week, while the Bank of Japan will release its latest monetary policy decision on Friday. It'll be a holiday-shortened week across the Tasman, and the highlights will be the NAB business survey (Tuesday) and the labour force report (Thursday), both covering the month of May. The Queensland Budget is also out this week, which will include a debt issuance update that will interest financial markets. There'll be plenty to keep an eye on locally too, with the ANZ truckometer, migration, electronic card transactions and selected price indices for May. The latest monthly Real Estate Institute housing market report is also out this week.
