U.S. Economy Grows Much More in Q3

A report released by the Commerce Department on Tuesday showed the U.S. economy grew in the third quarter of 2025. The Commerce Department said real GDP spiked by 4.3% in the third quarter after surging by 3.8% in the second quarter. The stronger GDP growth in the third quarter reflected increases in consumer spending, exports, and government spending that were partly offset by a decrease in investment.

The report also stated that the acceleration in GDP growth compared to the previous quarter reflected a smaller decrease in investment, an increase in consumer spending, and an upturn in exports and government spending.

On the inflation front, the Commerce Department reported that its PCE price index increased by 2.8% in the third quarter, following a 2.1% rise in the second quarter. Excluding food and energy prices, the core PCE price index spiked by 2.9% in the third quarter after shooting up by 2.6% in the second quarter. 12/23/2025 - 09:58:00 (RTTNews)

Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) Minutes: Policymakers Discussed Rate Hike Scenario

Policymakers of the Reserve Bank of Australia discussed scenarios in which policy tightening may need to be considered, the minutes of the meeting held on December 8 and 9 showed. Members became less confident that monetary policy would remain restrictive, the minutes showed. Policymakers assessed that inflationary pressures could be a little more persistent than had been previously estimated.

Members viewed that there is some upside risk to the outlook for underlying inflation in the near term. Also, they said headline inflation is likely to exceed the November forecasts in the near term. At the same time, the board observed that the risks to the economic outlook no longer appeared as pronounced as earlier in the year. Although recent data suggested the risks to inflation had tilted to the upside, members felt it would take a little longer to assess the persistence of inflationary pressures.

At the meeting, the board unanimously agreed that it was appropriate to leave the cash rate target unchanged at 3.60%, which is the lowest since March 2023. Members discussed the circumstances in which an increase in the cash rate might need to be considered at some point in the coming year. 12/23/2025 - 00:52:00 (RTTNews)
