② Pay attention to the Reserve Bank of Australia's views on U.S. tariff policies, as they may bring potential inflationary pressures.
③ Pay attention to the Reserve Bank of Australia's views on government tax cuts and subsidy policies, as Australia will hold elections in May, and domestic election spending will also bring inflation risks through its boosting effect on consumer spending.
