WILSON WEEKLY Ep 138 | Inflation, Interest Rates & Super Saturday Auction Insights

Episode Description: In this week’s episode of Wilson Weekly, Dr. Andrew Wilson breaks down the latest economic data shaping Australia’s property and financialoutlook. He unpacks the August inflation figures, explaining how surging electricity costs and shifting fuel prices are putting upward pressure on household budgets and what that means for the Reserve Bank’s next interest rate decisions. The discussion also covers Australia’s resilient labor market, with unemployment steady at historically low levels, and dives into auction results from “Super Saturday,” where Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, and Canberra all showed strong clearance rates. Dr. Wilson highlights how lower interest rates have boosted confidence and activity across the housing market while warning that rising energy costs could dampen future gains. The episode wraps up with a look ahead to September home price data, migration updates, and the RBA’s next move plus some lighthearted AFL Grand Final predictions to close out a big week in property and economics.Discover our new tool: What's My Rental Home Yield?
