About the episode

The Aussie market snapped its winning streak on Wednesday, falling 0.8% in its worst session in around 10 weeks. Stevie and Laura break down the drivers behind the decline, including weakness in heavyweight sectors like materials and financials, and look ahead to tomorrow’s local jobs data and what it could mean for interest rates. They also discuss signs of rising inflation in the US, strong performances from tech stocks like Nuix and Megaport, Rio Tinto’s new CEO appointment, and notable company moves including Evolution Mining and BHP.
