About ANZ Job Advertisement — Australia
DEFINITION
Series The ANZ Job Advertisement Series is a widely recognized and trusted financial indicator that provides valuable insights into the current state of the job market in Australia. This series tracks the number of job advertisements across various industries and regions, providing a comprehensive and timely measure of employment trends. Used by economists, policymakers, and businesses alike, the ANZ Job Advertisement Series is a crucial tool for understanding the health and direction of the Australian economy.
WHY THIS INDICATOR MATTERS
Labor-market data shapes consumer-spending forecasts and is closely tracked by central banks assessing the output gap and wage-inflation pass-through. The release is more useful as part of a longer-run signal than as a single-print catalyst. Released monthly.
WHAT CHANGED THIS MONTH
Latest reading (Dec 2014): actual 1.8 %. Prior reading (Dec 2014): 1.8 %. Before that (Nov 2014): 0.7 %.
WHAT'S NEXT
Sigmacast's 1-month forecast points to a higher reading versus the latest print, with the 3-month outlook reinforcing that direction. Both horizons are aligned bullish for this indicator, suggesting a consistent trend signal. Trend-driven dynamics are the primary tailwind in the current projection. This indicator correlates most strongly with AUD/USD (Bullish AUD, r=0.55) — a useful reference for forex-focused traders.
