UBS Australia chief economist George Tharenou said the labour market is cooling but remains slightly tight; to slow inflation to the Reserve Bank of Australia’s 2.5% target, unemployment may need to rise from 4.6% in August to around 5%. With upside inflation risks materialising, UBS still expects the Reserve Bank of Australia to raise the cash rate by 25bps next week to 4.60%. Tharenou expects a further hike in November once third‑quarter inflation is confirmed above the Reserve Bank of Australia’s expectations.

Politico, citing five sources, reports the Trump administration is drafting a 90-day diesel export pause intended to lower domestic diesel prices ahead of the midterms. The plan has provoked splits inside government and the oil sector; Energy Secretary Wright, Treasury Secretary Bessent and Interior Secretary Burgum oppose a full ban. Wright warned a simple export prohibition could force refiners to cut runs — because diesel is co-produced with gasoline and jet fuel — and raise other fuel prices. Recent US strikes on Iran and an attack on a Russian refinery have pushed diesel prices higher. Farm-state Republican pressure, including public support from Senator Chuck Grassley, has pushed the proposal; Trump is said to be inclined to announce measures before the weekend, but the decision remains subject to change.
