周五，标准普尔/澳交所200指数上涨0.7%，收于8865点，扭转了前一交易日的跌势，金融、矿业和黄金股的上涨提振了市场，对美国降息持乐观态度。全球股市一直在上涨，因为包括通胀和就业数据在内的乐观美国数据增强了人们对美联储下周降息的预期。尽管如此，该指数本周仍下跌0.1%，这是连续第二周下跌，受到全球贸易不确定性和澳大利亚储备银行本月可能决定保持利率稳定的影响。从行业来看，由于铜价走强，矿业股上涨1.5%，其中必和必拓上涨1.3%，力拓上涨1.1%。金融股也上涨1.2%，达到一周高点，四大银行各上涨1%以上。黄金股上涨2.1%，创下历史新高，本周上涨6.3%，金价徘徊在历史高点附近。另一方面，尽管中东和乌克兰的地缘政治局势紧张，但由于担心美国需求疲软和供应过剩，能源股下跌2.4%，因油价下跌。
The S&P/ASX 200 climbed 0.7% to finish at 8,865 on Friday, reversing the prior session’s losses, as gains in financials, miners, and gold stocks boosted the market amid optimism over US rate cuts. Global equities have been advancing as upbeat US data, including inflation and jobs figures, reinforced expectations of a Federal Reserve cut next week. Still, the index ended the week 0.1% lower, its second straight weekly decline, weighed by global trade uncertainties and the RBA’s likely decision to hold rates steady this month. Sector-wise, miners rose 1.5% on stronger copper prices, with BHP up 1.3% and Rio Tinto 1.1%. Financials also gained 1.2% to a one-week high as the Big Four banks rose over 1% each. Gold stocks added 2.1% to record highs, up 6.3% this week, as bullion hovered near all-time highs. On the flip side, energy stocks lagged, down 2.4% on weaker oil prices amid concerns over weakening US demand and oversupply, despite geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and Ukraine.
