Unemployment rate held steady at 4.1%, where it's been for over a year.
Participation rate edged lower to 67.0%.

The RBA has already delivered two cuts this year, bringing the cash rate to 3.85%, as inflation eases and growth stays weak. Investors continue to price in around 70bps of further easing by year-end, with the jobless rate expected to peak only slightly higher at 4.3%.
