What this release is

Australia Gross Domestic Product, or GDP, measures the total value of all goods and services produced within the Australian economy during a quarter, compared to the previous quarter. This report is a key indicator of the nation’s economic health and growth. The Australian Bureau of Statistics, ABS, is responsible for compiling and releasing this data.

Forex traders monitor Australia’s GDP figures closely as they provide insight into the country’s economic performance. Stronger economic growth, as indicated by a higher GDP reading, can suggest a more robust economy. This might influence the Reserve Bank of Australia, RBA, in its monetary policy decisions. Expectations of tighter monetary policy can increase demand for the Australian dollar, AUD, while weaker growth may suggest potential for policy easing.

The market typically focuses on the headline quarter over quarter growth rate upon release. Significant revisions to previous quarters’ data are also observed, as these can reshape the overall economic narrative. After past releases, market participants have adjusted their outlooks for the Australian economy and the future path of RBA policy, influencing the Australian dollar’s valuation.

Reaction = AUDUSD move 60 minutes after the release, measured from our own price history. Story links appear for releases our news desk covered; every release gets a row here whether or not it gets a story. Values from before our live tracking began are the current figures in the official statistical series, so they include later revisions; live rows record the number as printed.

Market statistics, not financial advice. All reaction figures are measured from our own price feed under our published methodology.
