The Match Out: The Fed helps support equities, Origin (ORG) bid in doubt despite improved price

Dovish commentary out of the Fed overnight helped to support equity markets globally over the last ~12 hours, and the ASX was no exception. Interest rate-leveraged sectors of Tech and Real Estate were the most significant beneficiaries as the rally in bond yields cooled off. The US 2-year yields fell back below 5% and Australian bond yields were also lower throughout our session.

The Match Out: China data knocks ASX, October the worst month since January 2022

The local index saw the best of the day early on, starting off with a respectable ~0.60% rally thanks mostly to a bounce across the Big 4 banks. The strength slipped throughout the afternoon though with cracks in China’s economy leading Materials lower. The index traded down on the session late in the day but managed to close marginally higher.

The Match Out: Energy leads the ASX to 12-month lows, IGO face earnings issues

For the past week, it felt like “when” not “if” the ASX200 would set a new 12-month low. That question was answered today as the local index fell further into despair, weighed on by the Energy, Financials and Consumer sectors. Tech was the only area of the market to buck the weakness, a solid result considering bond yields were broadly higher throughout Monday.

The Match Out: Marginal gains heading into the weekend cant offset a tough week

Equities managed a modest gain into the weekend, bucking the weakness of US markets overnight, though largely tracking the gains seen on their futures today. Investors were still wary of loading up too much risk today, highlighted by the weakness in the Tech sector today. Staples was a key winner, that sector hit 3-year lows yesterday but a broker upgrade for Coles (COL) saw some support.

The Match Out: A whisker from 12-month lows, the ASX remains under pressure

Shares were 1pt off a 12-month low intraday today with pain in the interest rate leveraged Tech and Real Estate sectors under the most pressure. Tech was hit particularly hard following a soft session for the Nasdaq overnight and follow-through selling seen on its futures today. Materials once again put up a reasonable fight thanks to support in Iron ore stocks, and the second biggest sector constituent for the local market finished marginally higher.

The Match Out: Equities unchanged though Inflation continues to bite

The market was relatively strong early on, supported by solid overnight gains in the US and most commodity markets, however, the music stopped at 11.30m as local inflation data came in higher than expected. The ASX200 index fell 65pts from high to low by early in the afternoon, but a small fight back, led by the Materials sector with commodity support, helped to stem the bleeding with the final result of only a small fall on the market. That came despite just 2 sectors closing higher while Real Estate copped the brunt of the pain.

The Match Out: A slight gain on the ASX today puts an end to a 3-day rout

Some signs of buying helped support the local market today, driven in particular by the heavy-weight sectors of Materials and Financials. The support there helped put an end to a 3-day rout which had set the ASX200 to an 11-month low. Locally, the focus will turn to inflation data due out tomorrow morning, the next print to determine where rate expectations head in the short term.

The Match Out: Pain in the commodities sends the index to 11-month lows, South32 (S32) off to a slow start
