The Reserve Bank of Australia is expected to raise interest rates to a 18-year maximum, marking the fifth hike in a year. The Australian market is predicted to face a steeper and extended slowdown, with Sydney residents facing the greatest impact. The Australian Securities Exchange is set to increase ahead of the interest rate increase, while households brace for rising costs. The move comes as the Reserve Bank aims to manage inflation and support the economy.
