CommSec Market Update

Market Close 26 July 23: Market responds to inflation data with 5 month high

The Australian share market staged a dramatic rebound on Wednesday, surging over 2% in its strongest session in almost a year as optimism grew around potential de-escalation in the Iran conflict. The S&P/ASX 200 climbed to a two-week high, with gold miners leading the charge after a brutal March, while tech stocks and materials also rebounded strongly. The rally followed comments from US President Trump suggesting the conflict could end within weeks, sparking a 3% surge on Wall Street overnight. Investors also shrugged off concerns about potential fuel restrictions ahead of the Easter break, with most sectors advancing and only utilities in the red.

Steve Daghlian and Laura Besarati are Market Analysts at CommSec. Each episode, they break down the day's market movements and explain what the numbers really mean.

Morning Report 01 Apr 26: Markets soar on hopes war will soon end

While the index clawed back from morning lows following reports of potential de-escalation in the Middle East, it wasn't enough to mask a shocker of a month for the ASX. March saw the benchmark plunge nearly 8%, marking its steepest monthly decline since June 2022. Energy was the runaway winner, surging 20% on record oil disruptions, while Materials and Gold miners faced their worst sell-offs in over a decade. Domestic news added to the heavy mood, with consumer confidence hitting a 50-year record low as petrol prices breached $2.50 per litre. Meanwhile, the RBA announced a landmark ban on most card surcharges starting October, and ARN Media shares cratered 17% following a high-profile legal claim from Jackie O.
