Australia NAB Business Conditions Weaken In April

Australia NAB Business Conditions Weaken In April

Australia's business conditions weakened in April but confidence bounced back from March, survey results from National Australia Bank showed Tuesday.



The business conditions index fell to -34 in April from -22 in March. Overall conditions were deeply negative in all industries outside of mining.

The fall in conditions was driven by all three components of the index namely trading conditions, profitability and the employment index.

The employment conditions indicator decreased 15 points to -35. "Overall the survey suggests that the unemployment rate will rise substantially in April," Alan Oster, NAB Chief Economist, said.

However, the business confidence rose to -46 in April from -65 a month ago. However, it was twice as weak as the trough in the 1990s recession.

"We see a recovery in growth late this year, but even though it could be a solid bounce the level of output is not expected to be recovered to pre-COVID levels until early 2022," Oster added.

Australia: Almost 600,000 people lost work in April

Australia: Almost 600,000 people lost work in April

Australia has suffered its single largest monthly fall in the number of people holding a job, with a record 594,000 drop in the number of workers during April.



Figures released by the Australian Bureau of Statistics on Thursday showed the unemployment rate spiking a full percentage point to 6.2 per cent last month. It's the highest jobless rate since September 2015.

"This is a tough day for Australia. A very tough day," Prime Minister Scott Morrison said at a press conference in Canberra after the data's release.

"Almost 600,000 jobs have been lost. Every one of them devastating for those Australians, for their families, for their communities. A very tough day."

Mr Morrison said the impending economic downturn would be tougher than the global financial crisis. "This is harder - we haven't seen this before and for young people who have never experienced that, this is beyond anything they could imagine."

The number of officially unemployed people jumped by 104,500 to more than 823,300. The previous largest increase in unemployment in a single month was 65,400 in October 1982 during that year's recession. The jobless rate peaked at 10.5 per cent the following year.

The Reserve Bank of Australia left its interest rate and the target yield on three-year government bonds unchanged

Sergey Golubev, 2020.06.02 07:26

The Reserve Bank of Australia  left its interest rate and the target yield on three-year government bonds unchanged

At the monetary policy meeting on Tuesday, the Reserve Bank of Australia board kept its interest rate at a record low 0.25 percent and the targeted yield on three-year government bonds at around 0.25 percent: "At its meeting today, the Board decided to maintain the current policy settings, including the targets for the cash rate and the yield on 3-year Australian Government bonds of 25 basis points."


The bank observed that the outlook, including the nature and speed of the expected recovery, remains highly uncertain and the coronavirus pandemic is likely to have long-lasting effects on the economy: "The global economy is experiencing a severe downturn as countries seek to contain the coronavirus. Many people have lost their jobs and there has been a sharp rise in unemployment. Over the past month, infection rates have declined in many countries and there has been some easing of restrictions on activity. If this continues, a recovery in the global economy will get under way, supported by both the large fiscal packages and the significant easing in monetary policies."

  • "RBA Governor Lowe’s timid attempts at jawboning the local currency may intensify with deteriorating fundamentals."
  • "Tensions with China could weigh on AUD moving forward."
  • "From a technical standpoint AUD remains capped by the 2012 downtrend, which has consistently acted as a pivotal inflection point for the cycle-sensitive Australian Dollar. To that end, deteriorating fundamentals may impose increasing downward pressure on AUD against its major counterparts, and may signal the end to the commodity-linked currency’s surge to pre-crisis levels."
