Tomorrow's trading on the ASX?

Market Index - Monday Evening Wrap

The S&P/ASX 200 closed 28.9 points lower, down 0.35%.

It was another day of very clearly delineated haves and have nots. “Have” sectors included those still basking in the warm afterglow of last week’s Trump + Red Sweep, plus those enjoying a continued but very modest dip in market yields in the USA on Friday.
“Have Not” sectors were generally those more exposed to Chinese economic growth as investors lamented China’s National People’s Congress Standing Committee's failure to wield a bazooka of fresh fiscal stimulus measures at their meeting over the weekend.

The S&P/ASX 200 closed 62.2 points lower, down 0.75%.

A modest unwinding of the Trump Trade that has so dominated local market proceedings over the last week saw some capital pull back from sectors like Technology, Financials, and more generally, those companies with a large portion of US-based earnings.
Alas, this did not mean this capital flowed back toward sectors that are seen to be major losers from the Trump Trade, like Resources and Energy. They were down again.
