The Match Out: The commodities trade supports the ASX

A solid session for the ASX today and as John Bowie Wilson (JBW) exclaimed on the desk, the market doesn’t look like it wants to go down! Resources back in favour with some good moves across the sector, particularly in the commodities we like (Copper, Uranium & Gold) which suits current portfolio positioning, while as we alluded to this morning, Tech is starting to look a bit tired.

The Match Out: ASX up a touch – not much happening today!

A quiet Monday to kick off the new trading week with the index failing to live up to the levels implied by SPI Futures on Saturday morning. A tick over 50% of the main board traded higher, however it was a session void of any real impetus in either direction  – Banks up a touch, resources mixed and a bit chop-chop elsewhere!

The Match Out: ASX flat as Sohn Conference dominates news flow

A muted finish to the week with winners and losers split fairly evenly on the ASX200. Materials were on the winning side, supported by strength in iron ore and gold, offset by further weakness in Energy which continued to slide on higher crude inventory levels in the US. The main index finished the week up +72pts / +1.05%, a strong result particularly given the sizable ex-dividends from NAB & ANZ.

The Match Out: Stocks rally as interest rates cool, Property the main winner

A ‘risk on’ session washed over the ASX today with stocks enjoying a softer inflation read from the US overnight and a subsequent drop in bond yields – markets are pricing out further interest rate hikes, and starting to price in a higher potential for cuts. The market opened well this morning, peaked at midday and while we finished ~20pts off the session highs, all sectors finished higher with over 80% of stocks on the main board in the green.

The Match Out: Resources lead the ASX higher ahead of US Inflation data

Equities regained their mojo today after two softer sessions either side of the weekend, the ASX200 popping back above the 7000 an a broad-based rally with more than 80% of the index finishing higher though strong contributions from the resources sectors was key. Energy in particular was strong following OPEC releasing forecasts for oil demand to increase by 2.5mbboe a day helping to stem the weakness in a sector that has been under pressure.

The Match Out: ASX drifts lower into the weekend, our take on Xero (XRO)

A week of consolidation at the index level comes to a close, and while the index was little changed (ASX -0.02%), a lot was happening under the hood with two banks reporting and several other stocks out with updates, by in large, we were on the wrong side of them headlined by Xero (XRO) which we hold in our large cap growth strategy – more on this below.

The Match Out: Smalls gain as the ASX200 regains 7000, Xero (XRO) smashed

The ASX200 hit a 3-week high around midday today on hopes that we have seen “peak rates” locally and in the US. The run home was a little tougher this afternoon though, finishing in positive territory but falling ~30pts from the high. The Energy sector continues to struggle, Crude oil hitting a 3-month low overnight feeding into further weakness today, offset by a reasonable performance by Financials and Materials.

The Match Out: ASX fades post strong Jobs data, Energy under pressure again

Traders faded yesterday’s surge in equities, giving back just shy of half of the gains seen in Wednesday’s session. Energy was under pressure on reports of higher crude inventory levels in the US while strong local Employment data took the shine off Tech and Real Estate.

The Match Out: ASX lower, ANZ down on miss, Short squeeze in Elders (ELD)!

A poor session to kick off the new trading week with the ASX snubbing the strength in the US on Friday night while latching onto any negative rhetoric locally that progressively weighed on the index throughout the day – finishing smack on session lows, not a great look!
