In preparation for my trip to PNG next week we have published our PNG Economic Update with the focus on our new Imports Indicator which suggests imports into PNG have been trending down since February! westpaciq.com.au/economics/2024…
A great update from Ryan Wells and as noted earlier, nothing here points to a rate cut by the RBA this year. westpaciq.com.au/economics/2024…
The labour market remains tight. Don’t fall for it was all partime. Hours worked grew more than employment while participation is trending higher, even for males. There is no chance of a rate cut on these numbers this year!

Economics is an ecosystem and I love most or perhaps even all of it. Theorists. Empiricists. Government statisticians. Ivory tower academics. In the trenches think tankers. Investment bank economists. Government economists. Tweeters. And many more I didn't mention.
Electric cars are not the future - First off my personal bias, I don’t own a car and have many bicycles. And part of the reason why is exactly this, urban mobility should not focus on a particular form of transport but a variety of options ft.com/content/61adc3…

This great 1997 article by Bob Shiller has survey evidence on to why people dislike inflation: they don't believe wages would be very different if inflation were lower. They think inflation makes them worse off from higher prices, as wages would be the same w/o inflation. 🧵
This is something I think about everyday until I get a headache. How are we going to transition to net zero, get the investment we need and meet the social/economic demands of the wider community? We are way of being close to achieving any of these goals.

This helps to reposition a lot of the conflict’s into the context of the decline of superpowers & the rise of regional powers.

Used judiciously the Monthly CPI is a powerful indicator of the quarterly CPI. Aug is the mid month of the qtr & brings a larger share of services. On this basis, + stronger crude oil prices & lower AUD we have upgrade our inflation forecasts. westpaciq.com.au/economics/2023…
There is a high probability of climate change being an existential crisis so we need to take out insurance. Yet we don’t understand the cost of that insurance nor the cost of climate change as we are nowhere close limiting the increase to just 2 degrees. westpaciq.com.au/economics/2023…
