The higher AUD (up around 0.5% during the session) may have played a role today, providing some headwinds for the offshore earners. Our Stock of the Day, Temple and Webster, was slammed today - closing down 17% despite reporting earnings up 138% for the quarter.

Bit of softness today but a reasonable performance considering the rout in Europe last night. The ASX 200 closed down 0.5% led by the miners, banks and CSL. Rio Tinto's third-quarter production results were lower than expected despite the company re-affirming iron ore guidance.

RBA Governor, Philip Lowe, strongly hinted at a November rate cut today, which the markets have already largely priced in anyway. The market reacted positively to the dovish speech, which also focused on job creation, to close up 0.5%. Materials and energy were the big gainers while consumer discretionary, healthcare and finished in the red. September unemployment came in at 6.9%, which was pretty much dead on the consensus estimate so little impact on markets there. Don't forget, entries for the

A seventh consecutive day of gains for the local market (up 1.04%), but the ASX200 still couldn't hold above the 6,200 resistance level. A bit of downside risk building perhaps? All sectors were up apart from materials, with telcos, tech and financials leading the gains. CBA and TLS held AGMs today with the former vowing to resume its normal payment ratio and the latter saying it would stick to its 16 cent div.

Yet another green day for the ASX 200 -its sixth in a row in fact -driven by banks and tech, primarily BNPL of course.

The ASX 200 closed down a touch over 2% today with a number of factors contributing to the slide. The local market was influenced by Chinese and Japanese markets, which opened hard and came off abruptly. S&P futures also down after the US Presidential Debate not only failed to deliver anything of value in relation to policy but muddied the waters for investors with regard to acceptance of the result.

Talk of a trans-Tasman travel bubble and mooted government support for the travel industry saw the sector on a tear today - Qantas up 6.4%, Flight Centre up 5.8%, Webjet up 6.6% and Helloworld up 3.4%. Real estate benefited from the easing of responsible lending rules for the banks next year and talk of RBA interest rate cuts.

The easing of responsible lending laws saw the banks back in favour with investors helping the ASX 200 to a 1.5% gain. Westpac was also helped by the settlement of its anti-money laundering case with Austrac - despite the $1.3 billion bill being the biggest fine in Australian corporate history. It led the way with a 7.4% surge, followed by NAB (up 6.86%), ANZ (up 6.3%) and CBA (up 3%). Miners were also up.
