Description

This week's important indicators are April's CPI and PPI figures and economists expect small drops in the inflation rate. Then the Reserve Bank's Monetary Policy committee meets from Tuesday and on Thursday they announce a repo rate decision. Everyone is afraid that it will be another 50-basis point increase.
