Evening Wrap: ASX 200 down as Trump bump turns slump on global growth fears, MIN and FMG sag

Markets hate uncertainty. That's the first rule of Investing 101. Events in the US, both economic news related and Trump & Musk ("T&M") related, continue to ratchet up uncertainty over both US and global economic growth. This is translating into lower stock prices, and increasing pain and...

Evening Wrap: ASX 200 dips as iron ore stocks FMG, CIA and RIO tumble, banks and Woodside bounce

A rally in major banking stocks, plus a tidy post-rating upgrade gain for Woodside Energy (WDS) helped the ASX 200 avoid a much bigger loss as indicated by the opening decline. Elsewhere, continued simmering global growth concerns weighed on commodities prices, and therefore on stocks in the...

Only an incy wincy gain today compared to recent losses. Clearly we're not out of the woods, but today's market breadth was encouraging, as was the fact that most of the major ASX sector indices finished higher. Of particular note was strong performances in blue chips Coles Group (COL) (+3.5%)...

Evening Wrap: Trumped! ASX 200 tumbles on spiraling fears over global economic growth

Macro themes (like Trump's 10% China tariff, the rout in US tech stocks overnight, and generally weaker precious and base metals prices) explained the declines in the first two, but it was generally the typical exploding of stock prices post earnings results – a hallmark of this earnings season...

Monday; ASX futures are looking for a lift of 48 points or 0.6 per cent to 8180.

  • Gold -0.7% to $US2857.83 an ounce

Traders are bracing for a volatile week, with fresh U.S. tariffs set to take effect on Tuesday. The new measures include a 25% levy on imports from Canada and Mexico and a 10% tariff on Chinese goods, escalating trade tensions. Efforts to prevent these tariffs continue, with Mexico proposing reciprocal duties on U.S. imports from China, but traders remain cautious about their potential economic impact.

The tariff announcements have strengthened the US dollar, causing the Australian dollar to briefly dip below US62¢ over the weekend.

Bitcoin surged back above US$90,000 after President Donald Trump announced that his administration’s plan to establish a crypto strategic reserve was gaining momentum.

Investors will closely watch this week’s National People’s Congress in China, where officials may announce fresh stimulus measures to counteract economic slowdowns and trade pressures. Any indication of increased government support for infrastructure or manufacturing could boost commodity markets, particularly for Australian exporters.

The S&P/ASX 200 closed 73 points higher, up 0.9%.

After a rough couple of weeks, the Australian market found its way back into the winners’ circle today, kicking off the new week and month.. It was a case of a rising tide lifting all boats, with every sector closing in the green. The rally followed solid leads from Wall Street on Friday night.

The S&P/ASX 200 (XJO) finished 73 points higher today, recouping some of Friday’s 96-point drubbing. The market started strong, faded into lunchtime, and then rallied after to close near the session high – a good sign from the bulls.

ASX futures were pointing down 1.3 per cent, or 104 points late in NY

AUD : +0.1% to US62.15¢
Bitcoin : -5.9% to $US87,392
Gold : +0.9% to $US2884.03 an ounce

US Markets initially traded higher but turned sharply lower after Trump ruled out any last-minute negotiations, stating that a 25% tariff on imports from Canada and Mexico would take effect at midnight, with an additional 10% tariff on Chinese goods also going ahead. Investors reacted swiftly, fearing the impact on key industries, with automakers like GM and Ford sliding to session lows.

Adding to the pressure, weak manufacturing and construction data released earlier in the day reinforced concerns about a slowing U.S. economy. The market now braces for Friday’s jobs report,
