Kyle Rodda warns of inflation risks due to government spending, AI boom, and global supply shocks impacting Australia’s economy
Government spending and the artificial intelligence boom are driving demand, while rising oil prices, tariffs and deglobalisation are creating fresh supply shocks, according to Capital.com senior market analyst, Kyle Rodda.
Rodda says the combination is adding to inflationary pressures and keeping interest rates elevated, as strong demand collides with rising costs and supply constraints.
He warns Australia’s weaker economic fundamentals could make the challenge more difficult, leaving households and businesses exposed to continued inflation and higher borrowing costs.
