Australia Continues to Enjoy Economic Expansion

Sydney, Australia August 12, 2014 – In September of 2013 Tony Abbott proclaimed “From today I declare Australia is under new management and Australia is now open for business” after defeating prime minister Kevin Rubb.
According to the National Australia Bank’s (NAB) index of business conditions jumped six (6) points to to +8 in July of 2014, representing the highest since early 2010 and an upbeat sign for the economy in the third quarter. The NAB’s index is a survey of more than 400 firms.
As a means of supporting the economic, the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) has held interest rates at record lows of 2.5% for the last year to support the economy to counter act the slowdown in mining investment. The RBA pays close attention to the NAB survey and views it a as leading indicator of economic activity.
The retail sector and home construction contributed to  NAB’s index of business confidence by 3 points to +11. Sales measures climbed 7 points to +14 and the survey’s measure for profitability increased 7 points to +10. The employment index increased to zero (0) after adding 3 points. The forward orders index rose 4 points to +5 above its average.
NAB’s chief economist Alan Oster, commented that “Firms still appear unfazed by the federal government’s ‘tough budget’, possibly taking comfort in the bounce back in consumer confidence… Stronger sales and profits are driving the trend, but the recovery continues to be relatively jobless with the employment index seeing more moderate gains.”

Measures of inflation increased slightly in July with labor costs up 1% at a quarterly rate mostly due rise in the minimum wage; however, product prices remained in check with a very light increase. In response to the positive report, the S&P/ASX 200 (^AXJO) closed up 71.50 points (1.31%) at 5,528.50.
