Westpac weekly markets video
Westpac Bank
This week we saw monetary policy decisions in the US, UK and Japan. Only the Bank of England raised interest rates but it was clear that the Federal Reserve is by far the most confident of the major central banks, upgrading its assessment of US economic growth from "solid" to "strong." In our brief weekly video, I discuss what this policy divergence means for FX and rates markets and take a look at the RBA event risk in the week ahead.
