The Reserve Bank of Australia's cash rate stands at 4.35 percent following the August 2026 hold, with market-implied odds heavily favoring no change at the September 29 decision. Elevated inflation—headline CPI at 3.8 percent and trimmed mean at 3.6 percent for the year to June—reflects domestic capacity pressures and lingering pass-through from Middle East-related energy costs, yet the June quarter print came in softer than expected on fuel and travel components. Recent data also show moderating demand, a slightly easing labor market, and the lagged effects of three 2026 rate hikes tightening financial conditions. This combination supports trader consensus around a continued pause while the Board evaluates whether inflation is becoming embedded. A stronger-than-anticipated CPI release or renewed oil price surge could still prompt a 25 basis point hike, though current pricing assigns that only low probability.

The resolution source will be official information from the Reserve Bank of Australia, including the statement or release from its September 2026 meeting, scheduled for September 28-29, 2026, as listed on the official RBA calendar (https://www.rba.gov.au/schedules-events/calendar/?topics=monetary-policy-board). This market may resolve as soon as the statement or release of the Reserve Bank of Australia Monetary Policy Board resulting from its September 2026 meeting with relevant data is issued.
If the specified rate is defined by an upper and lower bound, the relevant change will be the change to the upper bound.
If the specified rate is changed to a level not expressed in the displayed options, the change will be rounded according to the following guidelines. Increases or decreases of less than 25 bps will be rounded to 25 bps (e.g. an increase or decrease of 10 bps would be considered to be an increase or decrease of 25 bps). Increases or decreases of greater than 25 bps will be rounded to the nearest 25 bps and will be rounded away from 0 in cases of equidistance (e.g., an increase or decrease of 37.5 bps would be considered to be an increase or decrease of 50 bps). Displayed options of "Increase" or "Decrease" will include policy rate increases or decreases of any size.
If the specified meeting is postponed to a date and time before the start of the next scheduled meeting, this market will resolve based on the outcome of that postponed meeting.
If the specified meeting is cancelled, or postponed such that no decision is announced by the start of the next scheduled meeting, this market will resolve to the "No Change" bracket. Emergency changes to the specified rate not resulting from the specified meeting will not be considered.
