The Reserve Bank of Australia is expected to raise interest rates to a 18-year peak, marking the fifth hike in a year. The Australian economy 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 families brace for increased expenses. The move comes as the Reserve Bank aims to control inflation and stabilize the economy.
