The ABS just released its business indicators for the June quarter, which posted modest rises across most categories:
In particular, inventories slumped -0.9% (from +0.7% last quarter), which will shave circa 0.5% from GDP. But company profits (+4.5%) and wages (+1.4%) were a bit stronger.
Tomorrow, we’ll receive balance of payments and government spending data from the ABS, which will provide more colour on Q2 GDP before its release on Wednesday.
