The Aussie share market experienced its worst day of the year, with almost 90% of stocks in the red. This decline followed two consecutive days of record highs and could be attributed to profit-taking by investors. The US market also saw a slump, particularly in technology stocks, due to disappointing economic data. Key events to watch next week include the upcoming US jobs data and the Reserve Bank of Australia's interest rate decision.
