The Aussie market kicked off September on the back foot, with the ASX200 slipping to a two-week low as tech stocks dragged and major banks fell. Gold miners bucked the trend, surging on a stronger gold price, while Fortescue dropped after trading ex-dividend. Harvey Norman jumped on a profit beat and IDP Education extended its rebound, but Mesoblast and Mineral Resources weakened. With a wave of companies set to trade ex-dividend this week, plus key local economic data and US jobs numbers ahead, markets face a busy start to the new month.
