Notably, tech platform PEXA surged following the appointment of a new CEO, while Data#3 plunged 10% due to changes in Microsoft incentives. Bitcoin’s sharp rise—up 55% since November—has also caught attention. Looking ahead, retail spending data out of the U.S. is expected to drive global market discussions, while NAB’s AGM and dividend payouts will headline the local agenda tomorrow
