TL;DR: RBA Governor Michele Bullock has reframed Wednesday's Q2 CPI report — the question isn't whether core inflation is elevated, but whether it's hot enough above 3.8% to justify an August RBA hike, with AUD/USD stalled at resistance ahead of the release.

Market context: This update is relevant to AUD traders, with AUDUSD as the primary instrument to monitor for follow-through, trend continuation, or headline volatility.
