Market Close 21 Aug 24: Longest winning streak since December 2015

The S&P 500 and NASDAQ ended lower, breaking an eight-day winning streak. Lowe's shares declined due to weak consumer spending on DIY projects. In contrast, Eli Lilly's shares rose as its weight-loss drug showed promise in reducing the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Meanwhile, gold reached record highs, and the Australian dollar strengthened as the U.S. dollar hit its lowest level since January.

Morning Report 21 Aug 24: ASX to slip as Wall Street rally runs out of steam

The Australian share market is on the cusp of its longest winning streak since 2015, having already logged eight consecutive days of gains. However, despite the optimism, today's rise has been modest, impacted by weaker iron ore prices and cautious investor sentiment ahead of central bank meetings. Key sectors like materials and tech are performing well, while property trusts lag behind, with Dexus leading the losses after posting a significant valuation-driven loss. On the corporate front, Baby Bunting and ARB enjoyed strong gains due to positive outlooks, while ANZ highlighted challenges with late mortgage repayments amid persistent inflation. With over 40 companies reporting tomorrow, it's set to be one of the busiest days of the reporting season.
