What’s Around the Corner? A Stay-Ahead Look at the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) Update, 4 November 2025
Why it matters
Recent data shows inflation has picked up steam, electricity and housing costs remain elevated, and the Perth market continues to battle supply-constraints even as broader economic signals shift. These are all inputs the RBA is watching closely.
What could happen
– Hold Rates: With inflation at 3 % and supply questions still unresolved, the Board may opt to sit tight this month.
– Cut Rates: If leading indicators soften, there may be room for a 0.25 % cut.
– Signal More Waiting: A “watch & wait” stance could be communicated, meaning rates stay stable but lenses shift to future conditions.
What it means for you
– If rates hold, borrowing costs stay unchanged and mortgage strategy reviews become more important.
– A cut could boost borrowing power and spark increased activity-especially for first home buyers and investors.
– A wait-and-see signal means the window of opportunity may stay open—but timing matters.
