Market surviving the CPI number overnight – all is not lost although the rally has certainly started to doubt itself.
Market surviving the CPI number overnight – all is not lost although the rally has certainly started to doubt itself.
BOQ released full year results on Wednesday and was received poorly by the market to say the least. Down 7% (a lot for a bank) on the news, followed by an interesting bounce back yesterday, up 4%.
ASX 200 performs better than expected, falling only 40 points to 7051 (-0.6%). Volumes seemed light, and some book squaring ahead of US results helped sentiment. Banks eased back, with CBA down 0.6% and the Big Bank Basket down to $177.48 (-0.7%). Insurers slightly better IAG up 0.2%. Fund managers eased back, and REITs fell back as 10-year yields…
SMALL CAP PORTFOLIO 3.00pm Updates Nothing done today. Selected lithium stocks recovering from oversold levels. PMT, CXO, AZS to name a few. Market impetus running out as US CPI approaches. Volumes in small caps remain low. CSL a major drag as US Med tech under pressure on new kidney trial results using the ‘miracle’ weight…

Just a lot of motherhood comments about assisting the cost of living pressures, holding a strong balance sheet, and remaining well placed heading into a lower growth environment. There…
CSL fell 6.3% today continuing its nasty downtrend, as the GLP-1 (obesity drugs) juggernaut continues to smash through the healthcare sector. It has already destroyed ResMed (RMD) and yesterday their five year study into the GLP-1 efficacy in treating chronic kidney disease and Type 2 diabetes was halted early because the results were so good. It is…
ASX 200 limped to a 3-point gain to 7091 (+0.04%) ahead of US CPI. Six sessions in a row. Just. CSL was the biggest drag on the index as positive drug trials in the US marred the outlook for medical companies. The stock fell 6.3%, RMD down 5.3% on the same effect. Banks once again…
