The Aussie market eased on Friday, snapping its run of record highs as the ASX 200 slipped around half a percent to just under 9,000 points. Healthcare stocks weighed heavily, with CSL plunging after its restructure plans, while James Hardie also disappointed. On the flipside, Zip surged after strong US growth, while NRW and Helia posted gains. Ingham’s and Guzman y Gomez tumbled on results, and Regis Resources pulled back despite a strong year. Attention now shifts to Jerome Powell’s keynote at Jackson Hole and a busy week of earnings ahead, with results due from Coles, Woolworths, Qantas, Wesfarmers, and NVIDIA.
