Australian rate decision: Tuesday, 4:30. The Reserve Bank of Australia has not changed its interest rates since August 2016, but this time may be different. The Canberra-based institution may finally oversee a cut from 1.50% to 1.25% after Q1 inflation came out flat. In addition, the global economy is slowing down and the housing sector is somewhat struggling in the land down under. On the other hand, the labor market is doing well and so is the economy. Not all analysts see a rate cut coming now. The uncertainty implies a substantial AUD/USD reaction to the news
