A surprising surge in job growth saw 58,200 new jobs in July, driving speculation about potential rate cuts, though uncertainty lingers. In the corporate world, Cochlear shares plunged over 7% despite solid profits, while Telstra's shares rose on news of a dividend increase, despite a dip in profits. Notable moves included Treasury Wine Estates benefiting from easing Chinese tariffs, and Pilbara Minerals acquiring Latin Resources, sending Latin's shares soaring.
