Aussie Steady As RBA Holds Pat

Aussie Steady As RBA Holds Pat

As expected, the RBA maintained its cash rate at a record low 0.10% on Tuesday.

In the financial markets, risk appetite remains subdued, but there appears to be less pessimism and panic in the markets compared to the past few days. This could be based on the notion that investors feel that the bulk of the West’s sanctions against Moscow has already been announced, so "the worst is behind us."

This could quickly change of course, based on developments on the ground in Ukraine. As well, Russia will not take these sanctions lying down, and its response could dampen risk sentiment. Investors remain glued to the crisis, which has been the driver of the direction of the markets and is overshadowing economic releases.
