It has been a challenging and volatile week, but the market has improved for a second day following the 4-day losing streak.  Steve reflects on this week penned as ‘one of the worst months of the year for markets’ and discusses the US data that could impact their interest rate decisions tonight.  Locally only consumer staples and energy stocks declined with all others in the green, mining stocks have helped the market after recovering later in the session, and PolyNovo rose again.  Gold miners stood out with the precious metal price at record highs, a number of stocks traded ex-dividend, and Steve looks at what to watch in the days ahead.
