周三,标准普尔/澳交所200指数微跌0.1%,收于8948点,延续了其三个交易日的下跌趋势,科技股领跌。华尔街的微弱领先也拖累了该指数,因为投资者权衡了美国政府长期停摆,并对人工智能驱动的反弹的持久性再次产生怀疑。在国内,最新的住房数据显示,建筑审批再次出现月度下降,表明建筑业持续疲软。在企业方面,科技股领跌,下跌1.2%至一个月低点,Life360下跌4.4%,WiseTech下跌0.4%,追随美国同行下跌。其他值得注意的下跌包括该国最大的非食品企业集团Wesfarmers,其跌幅扩大了2.2%,达到9月3日以来的最低水平。金融集团麦格理也下跌0.6%,此前英国监管机构调查了将其直升机租赁部门出售给住友商事株式会社的计划。与此同时,矿业巨头力拓(0.9%)和莱纳斯稀土(1.5%)限制了亏损。
The S&P/ASX 200 edged 0.1% lower to close at 8,948 on Wednesday, extending its three-session losing streak, led by declines in tech stocks. A weak lead on Wall Street also dragged the index, as investors weighed the prolonged US government shutdown and renewed doubts over the durability of the AI-driven rally. Domestically, latest housing data showed another monthly drop in building approvals, signaling ongoing weakness in the construction sector. On the corporate side, tech shares led the losses, down 1.2% to a one-month low, with Life360 falling 4.4% and WiseTech slipping 0.4%, tracking their US peers lower. Other notable decliners include Wesfarmers, the country's biggest non-food conglomerate, extending losses by 2.2% to its lowest since September 3. Financial conglomerate Macquarie also fell 0.6% after Britain’s regulator probed the planned sale of its helicopter leasing unit to Sumitomo Corp. Meanwhile, mining giants Rio Tinto (0.9%) and Lynas Rare Earths (1.5%) capped losses.
