RBA Glossary definition for tradables

tradables – Tradable items are things whose prices are largely determined on the world market like oil, motor vehicles and clothing.

By comparison, non-tradables refers to things that are not readily exported or imported, like medical services, housing and haircuts. As such, their prices are largely determined domestically.
