[SYDNEY] Australia's central bank held its cash rate at 1.5 per cent on Tuesday, a widely expected decision as it assesses the impact of past cuts in August and May.
The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) made the announcement following its monthly policy meeting. A Reuters poll of 64 analysts had found all five expected a steady rate outcome this week.
