澳大利亚的通货膨胀在11月下降到3.4%,低于预测,但仍高于中央银行的目标。 Australia's inflation dropped to 3.4% in November, below forecasts, but remains above the central bank's target.

澳大利亚的通货膨胀率在11月下降到3.4%,低于3.6%的预测,这一预测是由昆士兰能源回扣结束所驱动的,尽管作为基本趋势的一个关键指标,缩小后的中位通货膨胀率略微下降至3.2%,仍高于储备银行2%到3%的目标。 Australia’s inflation rate fell to 3.4% in November, below the 3.6% forecast, driven by the end of energy rebates in Queensland, though the trimmed mean inflation—seen as a key indicator of underlying trends—slipped only slightly to 3.2%, remaining above the Reserve Bank’s 2% to 3% target. 房价持续上,每年上2.8%,服务业继续成为RBA的关注点. Persistent inflation in new dwelling prices, which rose 2.8% annually, and services continue to concern the RBA. 租金略有放缓,从4.2%降至4%。 Rents slowed slightly to 4% from 4.2%. 由于月度数据仍为新数据,并视季节性变化而定,预计中央银行将等待定于1月底提交的12月季度报告,然后再决定利率。 With the monthly data still new and subject to seasonal shifts, the central bank is expected to wait for the December quarter report, due in late January, before deciding on interest rates. 有些经济学家警告说,季度通胀上升0.9%可能仍然太高,令人不自在。 Some economists warn a 0.9% quarterly inflation rise could still be too high for comfort.
