• Market Close 12 Sep 25: Strongest lift in over a week for Aussie stocks

  Aussie stocks have posted their best lift today since last Thursday, as Steve recounts the session that saw the ASX making up for the modest moves lower of recent days. The strength of the US market had a part to play in this following their unemployment data, locally energy stocks continued to decline, and financials saw gains. Ex-dividend trading continued for a number of stocks, gold miners saw more significant improvements, and Virgin Australia caught attention. Steve looks to the week ahead with jobs growth data something that investors should be watching, and around $2.5 billion in dividends set to be paid to investors.

In commodities, oil prices fell 2% due to concerns about oversupply, while iron ore prices declined amid elevated Chinese steel inventories.
