Consumer inflation expectations increase in June
The expected inflation rate (30-per-cent trimmed mean measure) rose by 0.9 percentage points in June to 5.0 per cent. This follows a period of declining inflation expectations. Further data are needed, however, to evaluate the persistence of this month’s jump. Expected wage growth continues to be relatively weak.
The June 2025 Survey of Consumer Inflationary and Wage Expectations was released at 11 am (AEST), Thursday 12 June 2025. The July 2025 Survey of Consumer Inflationary and Wage Expectations will be released at 11 am (AEDT), Thursday 17 July 2025.
The Melbourne Institute Survey of Consumer Inflationary Expectations measures are designed to represent the average householder’s expected rate of consumer price changes over the coming 12 months. Further information can be found here.
