Coming up at 0030 GMT the latest update from the NAB business survey

  • this for January
  • the December survey showed 'conditions' collapsing
  • Business conditions for December 2
  • Business confidence was 3

What to expect, this via ANZ:

  • We expect business conditions to have been broadly stable in January.
  • NAB Business conditions fell sharply in January, ahead of a sharp fall in the Ai Group conditions indexes.
  • A further fall in conditions in January would be concerning.

A brief but sport on set of comments from ANZ. the collapse in conditions in December was a bit of a shock, they'd been sticking at levels despite confidence being on a much weaker side.
