ANZ-Indeed澳洲招聘廣告在四月下降

By

-- 澳新銀行(ANZ)週一公佈的數據顯示,經季節性調整後,4月澳新銀行-Indeed澳洲求職廣告數量環比下降0.8%,至113.3,此前3月份的環比下降幅度經修正後為3.2%,至114.2。 澳新銀行經濟學家Aaron Luk指出,3月份失業率維持在4.3%的穩定水平,表明勞動力市場狀況依然“緊張”,但不如年初失業率降至4.1%時強勁,這可能促使澳大利亞儲備銀行下調了近期的評估。 Luk補充道,隨著利率上升和全球不確定性加劇導致勞動力需求下降,預計未來幾個月勞動力市場狀況將有所緩和,預計到今年最後一個季度,平均失業率將達到4.5%。 Indeed資深經濟學家Callam Pickering表示,4月就業市場的下滑主要受食品加工、教育、安裝維護和零售等行業職位大幅減少的影響,而儘管人們對人工智慧的應用存在擔憂,科技業依然保持強勁。 皮克林補充道,從區域來看,新南威爾斯和維多利亞的需求疲軟拖累了全國總量,而南澳大利亞州的需求有所增長,西澳大利亞州則繼續保持著過去一年最強勁的勞動力需求。 報告顯示,與去年同期相比,4月的招聘廣告數量下降了1.4%。

Market Chatter: Bank of Korea Deputy Chief Says Time to Consider Rate Hike

Bank of Korea's senior deputy governor Sang-dai said Sunday that it was time to stop rate cuts and start thinking about rate hikes, taking into account persistent inflationary pressures despite measures such as nationwide fuel price caps, Reuters reported Monday.Since April, expectations suggest economic growth will remain close to 2%, while inflation is likely to surpass 2.2%, Ryoo said, backing his claim for rate hikes ahead.In April, the South Korean central bank kept interest rates steady amid increasing uncertainty from Middle East tensions and its possible effect on growth and inflation.
