Daily Insights
At market close, Australian equities registered modest advances, reflecting continued investor interest in cyclical sectors amid a stable macroeconomic backdrop. Sector rotation favored materials and industrials, while defensive areas like health care and technology encountered mild pressure.
The market tracked positive momentum from Wall Street overnight. Commodity-linked stocks performed strongly, boosted by rising prices amid geopolitical tensions (e.g., involving Iran). Major miners like BHP Group, Rio Tinto, and Fortescue Metals rose, while gold miners added 0.5–1%.
Financials also contributed to gains, with the big four banks (CBA, Westpac, NAB, ANZ) up 0.5–1.2%.
Specific standouts included stocks like Imdex Limited and Austal Limited among top gainers (up 6.7–6.8%), while others like GQG Partners saw sharper drops.
Overall, a solid green day for Aussie equities, led by resources and banks following Wall Street's lead.
