PM 23 Oct 26: Buckle up for a blockbuster week
Notes de l’épisode
The Australian share market closed essentially flat on Friday after a choppy week, snapping three straight weekly gains. Materials and energy stocks bore the brunt of selling pressure, with commodities including copper and lithium sliding amid concerns about AI infrastructure demand. Financials recovered ground, while retail showed mixed signals. Next week looms as one of the busiest of the year, with major US tech earnings, Australian inflation data, and interest rate decisions set to drive volatility.
