In his fifth Budget, Treasurer Jim Chalmers released the “most important and ambitious budget in decades” with a plan to navigate global uncertainty and build a stronger economy while taking the pressure off Australians.

With an overarching theme of ‘reform and resilience’, the Federal Government is aiming to shore up investor confidence at a time when the global economy teeters thanks to war in the Middle East and the disruption of global oil supplies.

For households and wage earners, the Budget delivers a mix of targeted cost-of-living relief and significant structural reform, particularly in tax and housing.

📈 RBA Lifts Cash Rate to 4.35%

As widely expected by futures markets, the RBA has increased the cash rate by 25bps to 4.35% — the third hike this year, taking rates back to the previous 2024 peak.

🔮 What Markets Expect Next
No move is priced in for June, but markets see a strong chance of another 25bp hike sometime between August and November.

📊 Why the RBA Moved Today
The RBA has revised its inflation forecasts higher:

Headline inflation now expected to peak at 4.8% in June 2026 (previously 4.2%)

Core inflation expected to peak at 3.8% (previously 3.7%)

At the same time, growth expectations have been trimmed to 1.9% for 2026 (from 2.1%), while unemployment is forecast to remain steady at 4.3%.

💹 Market Reaction
Markets were largely steady, with the hike well anticipated:

AUD/USD: 0.715

10‑year bond yield: 4.99%

ASX 200: –0.44%

📉 Our View
We see today’s move as bearish for the Australian economy and local markets. A resolution to the Iran conflict — and the resulting relief in fuel prices — would help ease inflation pressures.

🗓 What’s Next
All eyes now turn to next Tuesday’s Federal Budget, expected to be neutral to mildly contractionary as the government works to contain inflation.

At its meeting today, the Board decided to increase the cash rate target by 25 basis points to 4.35 per cent.

It’s April already and Easter will soon be upon us. We hope you have a peaceful and relaxing holiday weekend.

In March war sent shockwaves through global share markets, pushed energy prices higher and stoked fears of recession in Australia and abroad.

For investors, the instinct to act quickly can be overwhelming when there’s so much uncertainty. But understanding what's driving market movements and why a long-term strategy counts, matters more than the daily headlines.

We take a look at what the Iran conflict means for investors right now and why discipline, not fear, should guide your next move
