April 26 (Reuters) - Australian shares were poised to
open slightly lower on Wednesday, as caution ahead of a key
first-quarter inflation print that will influence the country's
central bank decision of keeping interest rates unchanged kept
risk appetite in check.
The local share price index futures fell 0.5%, a
6.0-point discount to the underlying S&P/ASX 200 index close. On Tuesday, the benchmark was closed for a public
holiday.
New Zealand's benchmark S&P/NZX 50 index fell 0.6%
to 11956.2 points in early trade.
