Content               Australian Economic Outlook Post Election

1.    Confidence improves: the election removes political uncertainty and the honey-moon effect means better confidence in business and hopefully consumers as well

2.    Interest rate: recently there has been some better macro data which has lowered the need for another rate cut in the near term but NAB still expects another quarter-point easing before end of the year.

3.    Currency: both the new administration and RBA seem to prefer a lower Aussie dollar to help rebalance the domestic economy in Australia and to cushion the potential drag from the peaking mining boom.

4.    Economy: the new government will try their best to boost economic growth next year, whilst blaming the old admin on recent and near-future weakness, but the medium term outlook is better due to improved political structure and international economic recovery.
