The Reserve Bank of Australia is set to increase interest rates to 4.60% in September. Inflation is still significant, and the growing strength of the US dollar has prompted the RBA to adjust its monetary policy. Investors are watching the effects of the rate increase on the property market and family budgets. Copper's AI boom is also supporting miners, influencing the RBA's decision-making. The decision follows recent reports highlighting the RBA's need to increase interest rates and the potential effects on various sectors.
