      Australian Q2 Inventory Data Expected to Impact GDP Growth

      Recent data indicates that private non-farm inventories in Australia fell by 0.2% in the second quarter of 2023, contrary to expectations of a 0.5% increase. This decline is projected to subtract 0.3 percentage points from the country's real GDP, raising concerns ahead of the national accounts release scheduled for Tuesday.

      The inventory drawdown was primarily concentrated in the mining sector, suggesting a potential offset from resource exports that could mitigate the overall impact on GDP growth. In contrast, company operating profits rose by 1.8% quarter-on-quarter, although this was below the anticipated 2.0% increase and followed a contraction of 1.3% in the first quarter.

      Additionally, private sector credit growth was recorded at 0.6% month-on-month in July, falling short of the 0.7% forecast and down from 0.8% in June. This slowdown in borrowing aligns with the Reserve Bank of Australia's cautious outlook on economic spending. The mining sector saw profits increase by 6.8%, while non-mining profits experienced a decline of 1%, particularly affected by a significant drop in financial and insurance services.
