标准普尔/澳交所200指数周五收于9019点,下跌0.2%,此前在上一交易日有所暂停,原因是金融和黄金股的获利回吐对该指数造成压力,而投资者在当地和美国通胀数据公布前变得谨慎。市场关注下周公布的澳大利亚第三季度通胀报告,该报告被视为储备银行政策前景的关键,而当天晚些时候公布的美国9月CPI则被视为美联储下一步行动的线索。在企业方面,金融股下跌0.5%,四大银行中有三家收盘下跌,澳新银行集团下跌1%领跌。黄金矿商也下跌了1.6%,将周跌幅扩大至约9%,为2022年7月以来的最大跌幅,因为投资者在强劲反弹后锁定了涨幅。行业巨头纽蒙特股价下跌4.4%,此前由于支出增加,第四季度现金流下降。本周,基准指数上涨0.3%,标志着连续第二周上涨。
The S&P/ASX 200 finished 0.2% lower at 9,019 on Friday, after pausing in the previous session, as profit-taking in financials and gold stocks weighed on the index, while investors turned cautious ahead of local and US inflation data. Markets focused on Australia’s third-quarter inflation report due next week, seen as key for the Reserve Bank’s policy outlook, while the US September CPI, released later in the day, was eyed for clues on the Federal Reserve’s next moves. On the corporate side, financials fell 0.5%, with three of the Big Four banks closing lower, led by a 1% drop in ANZ Group. Gold miners also declined 1.6%, extending their weekly loss to about 9%, the steepest since July 2022, as investors locked in gains after a strong rally. Sector giant Newmont slid 4.4% after flagging lower fourth-quarter cash flow due to higher spending. For the week, the benchmark index ended 0.3% higher, marking its second straight weekly gain.
