OPINION

Latest Market Matters Opinions

18/06/2026 16:44

What Mattered Today

The ASX 200 fell away throughout the session as Federal Reserve policymakers under new chair Kevin Warsh signalled the chance of a rate hike later this year, hitting tech, financials and rate-sensitive growth names. Defensives held up best, with Consumer Staples and Healthcare the only sectors to post a meaningful gain, while Energy, Materials and IT led the market lower. Oil extended its slide as the US-Iran deal on reopening the Strait of Hormuz raised hopes for a quick return of Gulf supply, while gold and iron ore stayed under pressure from firmer US rate expectations underpinning a rise in the $US.

Has CSL Ltd (ASX: CSL) turned the corner?

Hi Team, Do you think CSL has turned the corner? General opinion only Thanks Also, how does MM interpret ASX news releases.

Ask James

Question asked 12/06/2026

SmartGroup Corp Ltd (ASX: SIQ) Outperformance

I started buying SIQ after MM bought the stock "for income" more than 6 months ago. I was influenced by the fact that management is very capable and has skin in the game but was worried that the Labor government might change the EV concessions and FBT rules. I have started selling but I'd like to know why the stock has performed so well. John I wonder whether you could please give your thoughts on Smart Group. Having seen many stocks hit highs only to hold and watch them retrace (CSL comes to mind) I'm wondering whether if MM still held SIQ at the moment whether this would be a time that it would sell ? or stay on to ride the winners for more upside? Many Thanks Don
