- Financial markets have had to adjust their expectations for rate cuts this year as inflation has been higher than expected, and the Fed's policy continues to be dependent on data.

Quick Glance: Plans for New Fighter Jets Delayed Despite Labor's Defense Budget Increase
- The Albanese government is injecting an additional $50bn into defense over the next decade to extend military reach beyond Australia's shores.
- While overall spending is increasing, approximately $73bn over 10 years is being freed up by cutting, delaying, or altering the scope of some defense projects.
- The acquisition of new F-35 fighter jets is postponed by $3bn to keep existing Super Hornets operational longer and invest in long-range missiles.
- Despite $10bn in savings over 10 years from scaling back new infantry fighting vehicle purchases, the government highlights a net increase of $5.7bn in the immediate four-year budget cycle for defense.
