The iShares MSCI Australia ETF (EWA) could see short-term impacts due to Australia's decision to keep interest rates unchanged at 4.35% for February.
The decision to keep interest rates unchanged is a significant economic indicator that can influence investor sentiment towards assets related to the Australian economy, such as EWA. However, the direct short-term impact on EWA's price might be neutral as the decision was anticipated and may already be priced in. The relevance is high as EWA directly tracks the Australian market, but the importance is moderate because interest rate decisions are just one of many factors influencing the ETF.
