Morgan Stanley Sees Australia's Central Bank on Hold This Week

08:43 AM EST, 11/03/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Morgan Stanley said it expects the Reserve Bank of Australia to hold in a unanimous decision this week.

The RBA is scheduled to release its policy statement at 10:30 p.m.ET on Monday.

Morgan Stanley had previously expected some Board members to push for a rate cut, given a surprisingly weak labor market print for September, but the extent and breadth of the Q3 consumer price index beat make a hold much more likely now.

In general the bond market is volatile, and fixed income securities carry interest rate risk. (As interest rates rise, bond prices usually fall, and vice versa. This effect is usually more pronounced for longer-term securities.) Fixed income securities also carry inflation risk and credit and default risks for both issuers and counterparties. Unlike individual bonds, most bond funds do not have a maturity date, so avoiding losses caused by price volatility by holding them until maturity is not possible.

Lower-quality debt securities generally offer higher yields, but also involve greater risk of default or price changes due to potential changes in the credit quality of the issuer. Any fixed income security sold or redeemed prior to maturity may be subject to loss.
