The rise in the cost of living over the last four years remains a persistent challenge for the RBA and the Australian economy. Inflation continues to be too high with the trimmed mean rising to 3.5% while headline inflation remains within target.

Join Shane and Diana to look at the current outlook for inflation in Australia and how we should treat the latest signals and economic indicators amid both seasonality and supply chain issues.
